Vitularia miliaris

This sculptural form is inspired by Vitularia miliaris, a marine snail from the family Muricidae, a group known for its often robust and architecturally structured shell forms. It is found in tropical and subtropical waters of the Indo-Pacific region, living on or near rocky and coral-rich seabeds where it moves through crevices and complex marine terrain. The shell is defined by a strong spiral structure and a layered, textured surface. Subtle projections and natural irregularities give it a geological quality, as if formed through gradual accumulation rather than a single continuous growth. The surface carries a sense of time and environmental interaction, shaped by both biological development and external forces.

Handmade one-off sculpture in glazed, naturally finished stoneware.
