Jan Vogelpoel — 'Evolution Terracotta' Sculpture

This hand built, one of a kind sculptural vessel captures the movement of the elements in the striations and rhythm of its piece. Imperfect by design, it echo nature's energy and endurance.

Inspired by the sandstone cliffs and eroded rocks found around the Mornington Peninsula.
