Ceramic sculptures

Building sculptures with clay is my predominating artistic activity. Some of my sculptures are permanently on display in Flavigny-sur-Ozerain. They are meant to give you an idea of the evolution of my artistic career over the years.

La création des sculptures en céramique est devenu mon activité principale comme artiste. Vous aller toujours découvrir une sélection des sculptures et des objets dans ma salle d`exposition à Flavigny-sur-Ozerain.

My history of ceramic sculptures
There is hardly any technique, I skipped. Being into this field of art, means exploring an expanding universe and sometimes being overwhelmed by overflowing inspirations.
Water, being the element which I feel very much drawn to, might have literally been the source of creating surfaces by adding glass, that will melt and cover the body.
Therefore, since 2022, I am experimenting in this field, observing the results and navigating myself through the innumerable decisions, I could take.
Looking at the history of my work, you will notice a specific basic shape in many of my architectural sculptures since 2016. This basic form has its own history. Based on a groundplan, made up of a stretched rectangle with two apsides, the arising shape is symmetrical and horizontal. This type of body mediates resistance and solidity. It is unshakeable and reliable. There is also a silence to it. It seems to absorb noise or even repel it:
(„Melancholia“, „Dark Matters“, „Archive of Frozen Tears“, „Iceage Depot“, . . . )
Some of my sculptures are purely conceptual, some are tuned by a certain poetic input, inspired by natural phenomena.
At the end of 2025 I gradually turned away from those solid compact shapes.
There is nothing more I can say at the moment.
I will have to trust the process.
