Original artwork description:

Four Crater Vessels are captivating examples of his ability to merge texture and form into strikingly evocative pieces. The crater glaze creates dramatic, volcanic textures with pitted, irregular surfaces that suggest the raw power of geological processes. The finish contrasts beautifully with the vessels' refined shapes, balancing chaos and control. The vessels' minimalist silhouettes provide a canvas for the bold surface treatment, allowing the glaze to take center stage without overwhelming the overall design. The rugged textures evoke a sense of ancient, otherworldly landscapes, making these pieces deeply immersive and visually dynamic.

These vessels are a testament to Lybaert’s mastery of material and technique, showcasing his ability to transform functional forms into sculptural art. Their tactile and visual appeal make them a standout in contemporary ceramics.
