Amélie maintains a deep connection with the landscape. She gathers clays, rocks, and plants from nature to shape and glaze her ceramics. The landscape is a pretext for making ceramics, and ceramics a pretext for venturing into the landscape. A blender of territories, she roams, gleans, and assembles materials from her wanderings along the Loire River and in the mountains. She transforms, rehydrates, pounds, grinds, and burns all her finds. An endless game of experimentation and chance. Each sculpted object is composed of a small, intimate geography, a testament to places explored, inspired by nature and born from it. Each firing is a surprise. The raw materials express themselves, the rocks stand out, giving each of her pieces a free and spontaneous, textured and vibrant quality.
