Dries Engelen worked quietly and with great conviction across a long career, and this ceramic sculpture from around 1970 captures him at the height of his expressive powers. Abstract in form yet deeply human in feeling, it has the quality of something discovered rather than designed, as though the shape was always waiting inside the clay for Engelen to find it. At nearly 40cm wide, it has genuine presence on a shelf, console or plinth, and rewards prolonged living with as much as it does an initial glance.
A design from Studio Alium.

Features

• Handcrafted in ceramic by a Dutch artist with a lifelong dedication to the medium, this sculpture carries the subtle irregularities and surface richness that only the human hand working with fired clay can produce
• The abstract form is open enough in its interpretation to feel personal to whoever lives with it, inviting projection and conversation rather than offering a single fixed reading
• Its shallow depth makes it exceptionally well suited to shelving, mantlepieces and narrow consoles, offering the visual impact of a large object without demanding the space of one
• As a work by Dries Engelen, who lived and worked from 1927 to 2021, this piece represents a closed and finite body of work, making each surviving example increasingly rare and worth preserving
• An authentic vintage ceramic sculpture by Dries Engelen, The Netherlands circa 1970
• This is a one-of-a-kind piece. Only one available.
