Delicate porcelain sculptures of cross-cut pods encased with seeds and other vegetables by Sally Kent

Melbourne-based artist Sally Kent isn’t your typical sculptor. Instead of working with cold, hard stone or rough-hewn wood, Kent’s medium of choice is delicate porcelain. But her sculptures aren’t bowls or vases – they’re stunning recreations of nature’s hidden wonders. Kent meticulously crafts cross-sectioned pods, their intricate chambers revealed, and cradles them within a casing of seeds, vegetables, and other organic elements.

This juxtaposition of the fragile and the strong is a core theme in Kent’s work. The paper-thin porcelain echoes the vulnerability of the plant pods, while the vibrant seeds and vegetables symbolize the resilience of life. Each sculpture is a miniature ecosystem, a testament to the delicate balance that sustains our natural world. By elevating these often-overlooked details to works of art, Kent invites us to appreciate the beauty and complexity hidden within the simplest things.
