According to legend, in ancient antiquity a goddess by the name of Nvwa fashioned small figurines based on her own image and gave them life. Thus the first humans were born. As the ancient Chinese saw it, all life came from and eventually returned to the soil, which not only yielded food but also was the source of Man’s limitless imagination. The pliability of clay meant that even in ancient times beautiful pottery and figurines could be produced that were the work of the artists’ nimble figures and the fruit of their boundless ingenuity.
