This publication showcases the oeuvre of Irene Nordli, one of the Nordic ceramics scene's most renowned artists, and examines how her works have evolved over the past three decades.

Known for her figurines and porcelain, and the interplay between body and material, her art is presented in a way that interweaves the personal, the artistic, and the historical. My Hands Keep Getting Bigger invites readers to reflect deeply on her creative journey up to her largest solo exhibition at Kunsthall Grenland in 2024.

The dialogue between Irene Nordli and Gjertrud Steinsvag forms the core of the text, highlighting pivotal moments and reflections that have shaped her work. Photographer Thomas Ekstroem adds a compelling visual layer by capturing the extraordinary in the everyday, while designer Martin Egge Lundell fuses text and image with an experimental approach, challenging the conventional art monograph.
