Mélanie Bourget, 1972 | Ceramic sculptures

Mélanie Bourget’s work focuses on the human being. She creates Figurative sculptures in a contemporary yet a little offbeat style, oscillating between Realism and Fantasy.
Then she subjects them to the raku technique. Big busts of women with crazy hairstyles, mysterious and dreamy little characters are in a few words the poetic and fragile characters that live in her world.
Raku is an enamelling technique of Korean origin, that was further developed in Japan in the sixteenth century.
These creatures are alive; they transmit deep and mixed feelings.
And through the cracks of glaze we can see with accuracy the human soul…
Mélanie thinks of her mysterious characters as poetic, fragile creatures that transmit deep feelings.
Through her art they come alive and through the cracks of their glaze we see the human soul.

Pablo Picasso / Alda Merini | Alla tua salute, amore mio

Sono folle di te, amore
che vieni a rintracciare
nei miei trascorsi
questi giocattoli rotti delle mie parole.
Ti faccio dono di tutto
se vuoi,
tanto io sono solo una fanciulla
piena di poesia
e coperta di lacrime salate,
io voglio solo addormentarmi
sulla ripa del cielo stellato
e diventare un dolce vento
di canti d'amore per te.

Pablo Picasso 1881-1973
