Ethereal Bloom 010 (2025) Original Clay Sculpture by Koen Lybaert

Ethereal Bloom 010 continues his exploration of organic form and material nuance in ceramic art. This 40 cm high vessel, thrown from mixed clay and carefully built up with leaf-like structures, evokes both the fragility and resilience of natural growth. The partial white glaze adds a soft luminosity, offering contrast to the raw, tactile clay beneath. Subtle red slip accents on the sculpted leaves introduce warmth and visual rhythm, enhancing the sense of movement and botanical energy. The interplay of glazed and unglazed surfaces gives the object a layered presence, inviting closer inspection.

With Ethereal Bloom 010, Lybaert balances control and spontaneity, creating a piece that feels rooted in the earth yet alive with imaginative flourish.
