Nash’s stylized sculptural works evoke the 15th century Benin concepts of graceful slender proportions and undulating lines of 18th century Art Nouveau. Nash integrates expression, complex symbolism and sophisticated aesthetics to yield striking embodiments of the human soul. The artist utilizes stoneware, earthenware, terracotta and porcelain. The sculptures are then fired electronically using a pit firing technique giving the sculptures a “raku” effect; creating an “African Nouveau” trademark that is solely his own. Each sculptural figure is unique and strikes an individual pose of poetic grace and refined detail — each telling their own story. In the tradition of the great masters, Woodrow Nash’s consuming passion to elevate the human spirit takes the form of sculptures. Through his pieces, Nash achieves his goal of integrating expression, complex symbolism and sophisticated aesthetics to yield striking embodiments of the human soul.
