This monumental ceramic sculpture, one of the largest masterpieces by Wiseman Ceramics, captures the quiet power and layered symbolism that define the studio’s work. Sculpted by Thabo and painted by Wiseman Ndlovu, the piece measures an impressive 21 inches high and 29 inches long, making it a commanding presence in any collection. The vessel is entirely enveloped in sculpted lilies—each petal, bud, and leaf painstakingly formed and layered by hand, then painted in soft, blended tones that evoke both strength and fragility. The lilies seem to bloom directly from the surface, transforming the form into a living landscape. This sculpture reflects months of collaborative work: the large base thrown on the wheel, followed by Thabo’s meticulous sculpting, and brought to life with Wiseman’s masterful brushwork. Like much of their work, the piece speaks to the balance between stillness and vitality, strength and delicacy—a hallmark of South African ceramic storytelling. A one-of-a-kind statement piece that embodies the vision, patience, and technical excellence of two of KwaZulu-Natal’s most revered artists.
