The Many Faces of Evan Oberholster
 |
Evan Oberholster presented a striking new body of work at the inaugural Open Studios Fish Hoek and Clovelly, from 3–5 October 2025.
This latest series delves into the expressive power of the human face through a collection of hand formed ceramic masks — a vivid interplay of emotion, texture, and colour.

Some are raku fired, revealing the medium’s signature cracked glaze; others are ornately glazed and patterned, layered with detail.
Many are adorned with intricately crafted headdresses, introducing unexpected contrasts and infusing the work with a bold, contemporary edge.
