About the Item
Created specifically for the exhibition Timeless Remnants in Knokke, "Quiet Aunt" is part of Laura Pasquino’s new totemic ceramic series. This standing sculpture, composed of stacked, rounded volumes, evokes the presence of a silent, grounded figure — humble yet monumental.
Handbuilt in natural stoneware and finished with a soft, off-white glaze, the piece balances fullness and void, strength and softness. Each form appears to lean gently into the next, creating a rhythm of subtle tension and connection. The surface retains traces of touch and fire, honoring the raw beauty of the material and the slow process of construction.
Rooted in ancient traditions yet free from narrative or utility, "Quiet Aunt" embodies Laura’s intuitive approach to sculpture — where volumes feel both protective and porous, grounded and ethereal. The work carries a quiet energy, like a guardian figure, present without imposing.
One of a kind, signed, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

Laura Pasquino (b. 1987, Estonia) is a ceramic artist based in Amsterdam. Before establishing her studio in 2019, she honed her craft in Kyoto and Lisbon, shaping a practice rooted in nature’s textures and forms. Her work is distinguished by its minimalist aesthetic, embracing imperfection as a defining element. Often leaving her pieces unglazed, she highlights the raw tactility of clay, creating vessels and sculptures that reflect a balance between simplicity and depth. Guided by both traditional techniques and contemporary exploration, her process allows material and intuition to dictate the final form. Pasquino also collaborates on commissioned works for architectural and interior design projects, bringing an organic sensibility to crafted spaces.
