Inclusas Crucem

Born from the artist's feeling of being trapped within his own craft, Inclusas Crucem (Caged Cross) represents the experimental groundwork necessary for artistic evolution. Created during a period when NJH knew deeper design possibilities existed just beyond reach, this vibrant red stoneware piece embodies the productive tension between current limitations and future potential. The sculpture features NJH's distinctive pattern work and thorned surface treatment, where each element is individually crafted through pinching, carving, and press molding. This hand-constructed vessel demonstrates how artistic breakthrough often requires working through moments of creative constraint. Please note this product requires special shipping due to the nature of the piece.
