The Lac Collection explores the potential of enamel’s deep, transparent and colorful
surface.
In a vocabulary of useful forms,
objects free themselves from their utility and become pure aesthetics.
Hand-engraved in turned porcelain bowls, these carp swim in translucent enamel. These bowls represent the perfect blend of my love for engraving and my passion for a different kind of enamel. The unusually thick enamel is worked like glass paste, melting to reveal its depth and create a unique material from which the carp emerges.
They are not food-safe, as the enamel is too fragile to be scratched by daily use. For a version developed for eating in, go to this page!
These decorative pictures can be hung or placed.
Each unique piece is made from the surplus of mother plates and enamel pots. To magnify these leftover materials, random gestures give rise to a landscape of chance where the material expresses itself.
Patterns and colors are worked randomly to create cartographies of colored materials with multiple effects. They explore the depth and color of enamel on larger surfaces, through flat objects between utility and simple aesthetics.
Sculpture created with the intention of giving volume to the
receptacle needed to hold a certain amount of
enamel (usually on a single, flat surface). Excessive glaze would traditionally be seen as a defect. Accentuated and organized, it becomes the star element in this sculpture.
By miniaturizing while multiplying the reservoirs, this organic fractal gives a spherical dimension to this glassy material as it circulates between each petal.
Brooches, earrings and necklaces in white porcelain, decorated with carp in relief. Extremely subtle and discreet, these jewels reveal their finesse and the refinement of the relief as close to them as possible.
First a spot of light on your body, they can be admired in the inclination of a ray of light, which may or may not reveal the fine white fish swimming by.
