Handmade piece from Nathalie Reocreux's workshop.
What Nathalie Reocreux loves most about ceramics is experimentation. Collecting materials, crushing them, grinding them, sifting them, mixing them, and revealing them through flame.
Nathalie Reocreux uses clays that the ceramist collects around her home in Brittany or during her travels, but also clays that come from small farms. The process is very long: she removes the largest pebbles and debris by pressing the clay between her fingers. The ceramist leaves the rest, which creates decoration during firing.
Nathalie also uses materials she finds for making her glazes (granite, quartz, schist, hematite, wood and plant ashes...).
A production that takes time and allows her to be guided by randomness.
