Creatures

Hand-built objects with something of a creature and a sculpture. Made for flowers, branches, and interiors, but just as present on their own.

About
the Artist

Dineke Soer studied autonomous art at AKI in Enschede. She starts each piece on the wheel and builds from there, guided by a preference for objects with character, irregularity, and presence rather than polished perfection.
