SCULPTURES
Sculptural ceramics by Femke Hoyng
Hand-built ceramic sculptures explore weight, balance and containment — both physical and symbolic. The works combine sculptural form with layered photographic surfaces, merging material presence with lived image. Each figure stands still, yet implies movement: carrying, pausing, bearing. Alongside the human archetype, natural forms appear as vessels of time and transformation. The practice moves between body, nature and material — where holding becomes a state of being.
