Description

Amazone Terra n°14 is a contemporary ceramic sculpture inspired by the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-Sabi, which celebrates the beauty of imperfection, the traces of time, and living matter.

This work belongs to the Les Amazones Terra collection, a series of unique sculptures. The number accompanying its name corresponds to its order of creation within this collection.

Born of earth and silence, the Amazone Terra stand as sacred figures. They do not speak, but their presence says it all: they watch, protect, and preserve that which is too fragile to be displayed. They are the protectors of souls, the keepers of secrets, the silent witnesses of our rebirths..

The material remains deliberately raw. The textures, reliefs, and irregularities carry the memory of the gesture and reveal a free and instinctive earth. Each mark becomes the testimony of a transformation, where fragility fully participates in the strength of the work.

Artisanally made in my workshop in the Basque Country, this sculpture is a unique piece. It is signed by the imprint of my stamp in the clay before firing, making this signature an integral part of the work.

This sculpture originates from a modeling entirely done by hand, from which I then make a plaster mold myself to preserve the natural characteristics of the marbled stoneware. This process allows me to keep the white and gray veins of the material. A sculpture made only by modeling would gradually end up mixing the two earths and would make this natural marbling disappear. 

I then create slabs of marbled stoneware that I stamp in my molds before taking this sculpture back entirely by hand. The two busts are assembled on a base that I shape from a clay slab one centimeter thick, then I let the earth firm up before attaching the head, made separately.

This step is one of the most intuitive moments of my work. The head is never oriented in advance. I wait for the sculpture to begin revealing its presence to choose its inclination, according to the dialogue that establishes between the two female figures and what I feel at that moment. Each work thus finds its own balance and expression.

Once the structure is solid enough, I create the hair, the last step of the sculpture. I hand-shape long coils of about 70 centimeters by rolling the clay on the table to obtain a regular thickness and sufficient resistance to be braided all at once. This technique allows the two braids to naturally join the two skulls while maintaining their fluidity.

Once the braid is in place, I apply several successive layers of thick slip. The curves and tensions exerted by their weight require progressive reinforcement to consolidate the whole and limit the risk of cracking during drying and firing. This step entirely done by hand fully participates in the identity of this sculpture and makes its hair truly unique.

This sculpture is then fired at 1250 °C.

Amazone Terra n°14 is a silent presence, designed to dialogue with its environment and offer a moment of pause, contemplation, and connection.

Unique work accompanied by its certificate of authenticity.

Each work is shipped with the utmost care to ensure its safety during transport. The indicated delivery time is deliberately estimated cautiously and may be shorter depending on the destination of the work.

Presentation

French ceramic artist, Leslie Daisy creates sculptures inspired by volcanic landscapes, eroded stone, lush vegetation, and the natural forces that slowly transform matter.

Her universe is aligned with an approach close to Wabi-Sabi: an aesthetic that celebrates imperfection, the traces of time, and the beauty of transformations.

After an initial career in artistic makeup and special effects, interrupted by the discovery of a genetic disease affecting her joints, she discovered clay three years ago. This living material quickly became her new artistic language.

Each sculpture is entirely handmade. Leslie works with sandstone, earthenware, and other materials such as resin or stabilized plants to create works where textures, light, and matter dialogue.

All her sculptures belong to the Cycle of the Amazons.

These female figures do not represent ideal heroines, but silent presences that advance, resist, and transform. They bear the traces of their history as the rock preserves those of time.

Some works, particularly luminous ones, reveal another facet of twilight. Light then becomes a material in itself, giving birth to an intimate and enveloping presence that transforms the perception of the sculpture.

Through them, Leslie wishes to offer moments of contemplation and to remind that strength and fragility can coexist, and that a flaw can sometimes become the starting point of a metamorphosis.

Today, her work is aimed at collectors, architects, hotels, and places where art dialogues with nature and architecture.
