Paul works the clay through with fine lines of lighter marbling, spiralling into the shape of a shell-like form, the kind found on the shore once its occupant has moved on. The form twists around on itself, turning inward toward a hidden centre. It offers shelter and stillness, a small refuge shaped by patience, and the quiet trace of a life once held within.

Paul Herbert is an Auckland ceramic artist who works with marbled clay to create vessels and sculpture drawing on nature, the human form, ritual and belief. Beginning with coiled vessels he has moved into figurative work, exploring how the human figure and organic shapes echo one another. A finalist in the Quarry Ceramic Awards, Waiclay National Ceramics Awards and Ceramics NZ National Exhibition, Paul continues to experiment with pattern, texture and form.
