Alistair Danhieux

United Kingdom  • 1975

Presentation

Alistair Danhieux was born in 1975 in Crewe, England.

He left his country of origin at age 18. His journeys led him one day to Puisaye where he discovered the local ceramics business. He settled in 2006 in Saint-Amand-en-Puisaye (Nièvre).

"Alistair is one of these artist-craftsman whose work is the result of a life marked by adventure rather than traditional learning or education courses. A frequent traveler, he goes towards people, their countries, their jobs, their ways of being. As it was done in the nineteenth century, he has shared many of his memories through sketches, rediscovering art through the game of sincerity. He only had to find an activity through which he could materialize these experiences.

Pottery and everything related to it, all that is ceramics has offered him the best field of action. His manual skills, his sensibility to aesthetics, his contact with potters, especially those teaching at CNIFOP Saint Amand, allowed him to enter almost spontaneously in this business that responds so well to his expectations ".
