Anne Bulliot (FR) – ‘sculpted’ container, lava finish vs. burnished finish. This is a very heavy, ‘cracked’ bowl, partly with a lava-like appearance and partly with a beautifully polished dark red surface. Height 13 cm, width 14.4 cm, incised signature, 1995–2000.
About Anne Bulliot (1961): She did her study at the Academy of Applied Arts at Strassburg (FR),
from which she graduated in 1985. In 1986 she established her own studio at Strassburg.
Her sculptures are reminiscent of what they undergo in the process of their making. The rough and
natural clay of her objects make them look as if they were made of pieces of solidified lava and then
exposed to the creative and shaping will of the artist. Bulliot’s works combine strong and exiting
contraries whose effects are enhanced by subtle, irregular shadows which the smoking fire left on the
surfaces of the clay, as well as by softly shining spots produced by burnishing. Text is taken from Galerie Heller with our thanks.
