Fabienne Peretti

Fabienne was born in the West Indies, grew up in Africa and now lives in Canada after spending a few years in Guyana (where she began her training in pottery), then in Martinique (where she continued her apprenticeship in the heart of the famous pottery village of Trois Ilets).

As soon as she can, she leaves to discover new horizons and takes the opportunity to exchange techniques with the potters she meets during her travels, in order to learn more and more.

From her nomadism was born a great curiosity for all forms of art, but it is pop art and street art that make her vibrate.

His latest creations take up revisited great classics, such as the girl with a pearl earring, the son of a man or even his representation of Basquiat as a boxer.

If she works with white earth (which gives her a better rendering for bright colors), and slightly chamotted (to have more material between her fingers), Fabienne does not try to create an ideal character. Today, she who worked for a long time on the wheel on straight, rectilinear shapes, with perfect proportions, claims a completely uninhibited practice of ceramics.

And Fabienne usually says that "often it's the earth that takes her where she wants to go".
