Porcelain sculptures created for hauntology or ghostly art often explore themes of memory, absence, and the uncanny. One prevalent motif is the spectral figure—ethereal, fragmented, or partially translucent forms that evoke a sense of lingering presence. Artists frequently use cracked or incomplete porcelain to symbolize the fragility of time and the incompleteness of historical narratives. Another common theme is the juxtaposition of traditional ceramic techniques with unsettling imagery, such as hollow-eyed faces or distorted bodies, to disrupt the viewer’s expectations of beauty. The interplay of light and shadow on porcelain surfaces enhances the eerie quality, suggesting fleeting glimpses of the supernatural. Additionally, many works incorporate symbols of domesticity—like broken teacups or dolls—to evoke haunted nostalgia, blurring the line between the familiar and the unsettling. These sculptures challenge perceptions of permanence, inviting contemplation on loss, time, and the unresolved past.
