Nils Lou’s Pygmalion II could be interpreted as the celebration of the artist’s love for the malleability of clay. This slab-built porcelain vessel has been stamped and impressed with a variety of textures, speaking to the spontaneity and playfulness with which Lou approached his work. The irregularity of the surface, left unglazed, interacts with the ash and flame of the wood kiln, accentuating the marks, ripples, and protrusions with light dustings of toasty oranges, blushing pinks, and neutral grays.
