    Inspiration and Techniques

    Typically a ceramicist with attention to detail and focussed on functional pieces and tableware, Violaine is currently experimenting with the magic of raku, an intricate and labour intensive process which entails taking her ceramics red hot from the kiln straight into contact with combustible materials. To Violaine the resulting pieces are reminiscent of a variety of landscapes: perhaps a network of roads or fields seen from above, or an unfamiliar lunar landscape. All are totally unpredictable when they are created, each piece is unique and with its own character, and leads our imagination down a different path.
