Thérèse Lebrun

It is the process of making her pieces that guides her thoughts about them, leading Thérèse along her path as a ceramicist, towards the conception of new projects. Her way of creating begins with doing, rather than thinking.

you can add a small introduction to the following paragraph text

Thérèse says:

“ What interests me, fascinates me, fuels my imagination :

• vegetal structures,
• the submarine world,
• ageing, disappearance, remains, traces,
• the transformation of natural materials by the elements : wind, rain, water, frost, heat, time . . .
• rhythms, the disorder that emerges from within apparent order,
• fragility,
• translucence,
• the limits of porcelain.

Recreating these universes in my own way, I compress time and materials, using basic elements such as water, earth, fire, air, vegetal matter. I create traces, remains, And perhaps stop time from passing by.

All of this leads me towards the creation of membranes, envelopes, skins, fossils, corals, phryganea, cocoons, mysterious refuges for the worlds of our imagination."
