The exhibition “Sculpture Now!” features the work of ceramicist Paulien Ploeger. The works will be on display until January 18th. On the final day of the exhibition, Paulien Ploeger will give a lecture about her work and her sources of inspiration.
Sometimes the calling for a craft is literally in the genes—or in the fingers. For ceramicist Paulien Ploeger, her artistic journey began not in a studio, but in the vast dunes of Kijkduin and Scheveningen.
From the dunes to the oven
This deep-seated urge to shape and discover ultimately led her to ceramics. What began as an intuitive play with sand blossomed into a professional artistry centered on dialogue with clay. During this lecture at the Zandvoort Museum—a place inextricably linked to that very coastline—Paulien will share her sources of inspiration. Whether you’re a fan of modern ceramics, enjoy working with your own hands, or simply want to listen to a soulful life story: this afternoon offers a unique glimpse into the world of an artist who weaves the soul of the beach into her work.
