Pumpkin Goose

 Pumpkin Goose is a one-of-a-kind ceramic sculpture that brings together observation, material history, and playful form. Inspired by the geese encountered while birding in Sydney parks, the work reflects a quiet attentiveness to everyday wildlife and their subtle personalities. The upright stance of the goose suggests both curiosity and confidence, lending the piece a gentle narrative presence.

The pumpkin body is formed using a plaster mould taken directly from a real pumpkin, preserving its natural contours and imperfections. This grounding, organic base contrasts with the expressive hand-built elements above, emphasizing the dialogue between found form and sculptural intervention. The surface is finished with layered glossy and iridescent glazes that shimmer as light moves across the piece, revealing shifting hues and depth.

Carefully hand-built and individually glazed, Pumpkin Goose is a unique sculptural object intended for collectors of contemporary ceramics who value process-driven work, narrative detail, and a strong connection to nature. No two works are exactly alike, making this piece a singular addition to any collection.
