Ron Nagle creates intimate ceramic sculptures that are embellished with epoxy details. Each sculpture contains its own miniature formal narrative, moving away from the tradition of usable ceramic vessels to explore clay as a purely sculptural medium. The beauty of Yellin’ with Helen is its peculiarity: a biomorphic and precise abstract form, bursting with other-worldliness.
