Sand 01

Sale price$545

Sand 01 is part of the Raw Resonance Collection which originates from drawing as the foundation of a sculptural way of thinking, with each piece translating line, volume, and material presence. Through reduction, the collection strips away the non-essential to reveal structure, gesture, and balance... placing function in dialogue with sculptural form. Subtle shifts in the center of gravity introduce a restrained tension, giving rise to objects of quiet intensity and a strong material presence. Made from grogged tan stoneware and glazed at 2300 degrees.

About the Maker

Sofia Águas

Her ceramic practice began in 2013 after relocating with her family to Santiago, Chile. What started as a personal pursuit to cultivate focus and balance became a turning point, reconnecting her with the knowledge of the hand and the expressive potential of clay. Time spent in Madrid, Belfast, and Cardiff further expanded her understanding of material culture, shaping a distinctive practice grounded in materiality, restraint, and presence. Rather than imposing predetermined forms, she develops each piece through an ongoing dialogue with clay, allowing its inherent qualities and responses to inform the making process. Her work occupies the space between function and sculpture, where tactility, balance, and emotional resonance play a central role.
A researcher and professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon, with a background in product design and co-design, she currently lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal.
