About this artwork

African Fertility Bronze Sculpture II, edition 1 of 1:

This is a one-of-a-kind bronze sculpture from my evolving Echos of Africa series. This growing series of bronze sculptures amongst other includes my re-imagining of traditional African fertility dolls - symbols of femininity, continuity, and cultural identity. Each piece presents a stylized
woman’s face, often set within circular or shield-like forms, blending simplicity with symbolism.

No… two works are the same. Each sculpture is individually sculpted, cast and finished by hand, with the patina a blend of earthy bronze and subtle verdigris.

Height: 47 cm, standing on a bronze base measuring 13.5 x 13.5 cm. Weight 2.2 kg

Credentials

Works on commission

Heinrich Filter is a self-taught sculptor whose deep connection to the African wilderness—shaped by over a decade as a professional safari guide—lies at the heart of his work. Specialising in bronze, he creates powerful, handcrafted pieces that fuse lifelike realism with expressive abstraction and refined, timeless form. Inspired by Africa’s wildlife, people, and tribal heritage, Filter’s sculptures convey presence, dignity, and emotional depth. Every piece is personally crafted by the artist—from mould-making and wax work to casting, chasing, and patination—ensuring a singular vision from start to finish. His work balances classical technique with a contemporary sensibility, creating enduring pieces that celebrate the raw beauty and spirit of Africa.
