Description
Female icons
Woman adorned with all these butterfly wings, like a female sphyche, represents the breath of life, the breath of the soul. She flies off towards the mystery of an intimate world. They are both protectors and intermediaries between heaven and earth.
The black virgins of Auvergne who cradled the artist's childhood inspire his faience madonnas. Fueled by the myths of protective goddesses, these "profane" virgins decline a maternal and loving figure.
Inspired by religious iconography, from the Black Virgins of Auvergne to the santi belli (votive figurines) of the 19th century, from Asian mandalas to cultural representations of Latin America, the artist offers in his sculptures an imagery that everyone can relate to. its own sources. The sculptures are characters with radiant dimensions, their doors and their hiding places can reveal other sculptures, by different levels of reading and perception. The statuary, of the artist, tells stories of heroines of mythology, legends of literature. A mysterious life inhabits these women of earthenware and gentleness.

Presentation
Fabienne Auzolle, born in 1967 in Clermont-Ferrand, is a French ceramic artist, contemporary sculptor, and creator of ceramic installations, recognized for her poetic universe where contemporary ceramics, glazed earthenware, textile art, symbolism, sacred art, mythology, nature, and femininity engage in dialogue. A graduate of the École du Louvre (1989), where she studied art history, and later the Centre Artisanal de la Terre at ENSAA Duperré in Paris (1995), she has developed a practice deeply informed by European artistic heritage, decorative arts, and global ceramic traditions.
To enrich her visual language, Fabienne Auzolle has undertaken numerous study trips to Burkina Faso, where she discovered primitive firing techniques and bogolan, as well as to Italy, where she deepened her practice of glazed earthenware. Artist residencies in South Korea, Norway, and Iran have also nourished her reflections on rituals, beliefs, and folk traditions. She currently lives and works in her studio located in a former glassworks in Choisy-le-Roi.
Fabienne Auzolle's work is distinguished by ceramic sculptures entirely shaped by hand, to which she sometimes adds textiles, threads, beads, shells, antique jewelry, or botanical elements. Her famous female figures, often covered in flowers or foliage, evoke ex-votos, religious icons, trees of life, or cabinets of curiosities. Her work explores the links between the sacred and the profane, the real and the imaginary, memory, spirituality, and contemplation. Art history serves as a constant reference in her approach, with a particular admiration for the 17th century, literature, classical painting, and grand architectural programs.
A member of the Ateliers d'Art de France, Fabienne Auzolle exhibits regularly in France and internationally. Her main solo exhibitions include “Arbre de Vie" at Galerie Lefor Openo (Paris, 2013), exhibitions at the Musée La Piscine in Roubaix (2014), the Lafayette Design Center in Shanghai (2014), “Révélations" at the Grand Palais (Paris, 2015), the Musée Bourgoin-Jallieu (2016), the Miaja Gallery in Singapore (2016), “Alchimia" at Galerie Insula (Paris, 2017), as well as presentations at Galerie Véronèse (Nantes, 2018) and Galerie Talents (Paris, 2019). She also participates in numerous group exhibitions and international fairs, notably Collect at the Saatchi Gallery in London (2015 and 2017), Révélations – Biennale Internationale Métiers d'Art et Création at the Grand Palais (2015 and 2019), Maison & Objet in Singapore and Miami, the ICFF in New York, as well as exhibitions in Japan, Korea, England, Norway, and the United States.
Through a unique body of work blending contemporary sculpture, art ceramics, artisan craftsmanship, visual poetry, and a botanical imaginary, Fabienne Auzolle has established herself as one of the leading figures of contemporary French ceramics. Her dreamlike universe, imbued with delicacy and spirituality, invites the viewer to a sensitive meditation on living beings, transmission, and the marvelous.
