Laure aim's to master the notion of
space and to capture light, seeing through a piece in order
to inhabit it and be aware of it's texture.
As a trained architect and designer, she
has maintained a certain sense of rigour and a desire for coherence
with regard to the object's purpose.
From anatomy to sculpture and then on to
vessels, she was hand-building for many years before being
trained on the wheel by Augusto Tozzola and Thierry Fouquet, and
studied the use of
glazes at the CNIFOP with François Eve.
She has
been working from 1998 to 2007, in a firing and ceramics studio ( terre
& feu, Paris ) where she teaches adults classes.
She settled down since 2007 in a place which looks like her with as project
to make it a space of work and exchanges just like the association which she
founded with Anne Deberly-Rome ( Un jour d'Atelier, Paris ). She has
also been responsible for artistic and cultural projects in schools and has
been involved in training professionnals.
Her pieces are usually one-off or produced
in a limited thematic series. They are made in earthenware, stoneware or porcelain
and are glazed, at times only partially, and often combine several techniques.
