On a low wooden cabinet, next to a stack of books and a soft linen cloth, this ceramic sculpture stands as if it always belonged there. The warm wood tone of the pedestal brings tranquility, while the playful colors immediately add life to the space. A small object, but with a striking sense of presence.
This handmade artwork by Hartwerk combines glazed ceramics with a pure log slice as its base. The shapes are deliberately playful and slightly irregular – as if the sculpture follows its own rhythm. The vibrant colors – yellow, blue, red, and earth tones – create an expressive appearance that feels surprisingly harmonious at the same time.
The original stamp and its excellent condition make this a reliable and authentic piece. Not mass-produced, but a carefully selected object within De Tuin Der Kunsten's own curation. Here, you feel that every detail is right without striving for perfection.
More than an object – a sense of connection
What makes this sculpture special is how it brings contrasts together: playfulness and tranquility, color and simplicity, form and structure. It is precisely in this combination that connection arises – between materials, between elements in your interior, and between the object and the space it inhabits.
It is a piece that doesn't scream for attention, but continues to captivate. It brings a subtle energy, a gentle presence that contributes to an interior that feels right. Authentic decoration that is not only beautiful, but also adds something to the atmosphere.
The social story behind this work
What makes this sculpture special is not only how it looks, but also what it brings with it. It carries a form of peace that you cannot force — a quiet presence that creates space.
Within the philosophy of De Tuin Der Kunsten, every work gains that extra layer of meaning. This piece was created by someone who actively participates in a social institution, where art and day care come together. The result is not a mass-produced item, but a unique object with its own rhythm and story.
Moreover, a portion of each purchase flows back to the place where it originated. This way, you help keep this creative environment alive – and allow new works to grow.
Where does this piece fit in?
In a residential setting, this sculpture feels at home on a dresser, bookshelf, or side table. It brings color to a minimalist interior and enhances character in an eclectic space.

It exudes creativity and personality, without being disruptive. For those who consciously choose an environment that radiates peace and identity.
This is not decoration. This is an energy object.
