Held Interval is a hand-built ceramic sculpture from my Absence and Presence series, exploring the relationship between solid form and the space it contains.
The piece creates a quiet tension between weight and lightness. The negative space acts as a pause within the form—a place where the eye can rest and move through at the same time.
The surface is layered with deep greens, charcoal tones, and soft mineral variations, giving it a weathered, almost geological quality. Speckled textures and subtle shifts in glaze create depth and movement, while the darker palette emphasizes the piece’s sense of stillness and gravity.
Part of my ongoing sculptural Absence and Presence series, these pieces invite stillness and contemplation, asking the viewer to consider the space within as integral to the form itself. These vessels are shaped as much by what is missing as by what remains. Each form holds space — for breath, for memory, for what cannot be seen. The voids are intentional: an expression of the unseen forces that shape us.
Dimensions: 9.5 inches high x 6.5 wide x 4.5 deep
Material: Handbuilt stoneware with weathered green and gray glaze
