This asymmetrical vase by Serax is intuitively misshapen by the artisan before being spontaneously handpainted. The premise, by designer Marie Michielssen, incorporates the idea of automatic inspiration, employed in Eastern calligraphy. In the large 'Sophia' vase in ink blue, brushwork features swirls, dots and brisk lines in an abstract composition. The artisanal nature of production means no two vases are identical, and each piece is entirely unique.
