Eliane Le Besque Cotte

In the silence of my studio, far from the noise of the world, I shape my little clay figurines with the desire to preserve a naive and narrative universe in their texture and finish, very human and far from a smooth and modern aesthetic.

I seek a form of childlike sensitivity tinged with seriousness in their faces, their postures and their gazes.

The pieces I model are most often coloured with patina, engobe or oxides. However, I prefer high-temperature glazes (1260 °C) because they give the final piece a very special softness.
