Like a researcher passionate about the elements of fire and minerals, Mickie Doussy has traveled the world for twenty years in search of production techniques and primitive cooking. The presence in New Caledonia of shards of pottery belonging to the Lapita civilization which has now disappeared, the meeting of potters artists in Koumac, and sculptors in Lifou where she set up her workshop, were a very enriching source in her creative process, thanks to the exchange of ancestral techniques associated with contemporary cooking techniques.
The symbolism attached to his sculptures feeds on these experiences at the roots of the human soul.
From this exploration Mickie Doussy looks at the solar side of Man. She creates characters imbued with wonder in contact with the elements. This wonder thus appears to everyone as a possible way open to the treasure of existence.
With water, air and fire as allies, she develops her characters with chamotées earth or uses stoneware, porcelain engobes, until the blossoming of a harmonious chromatic range giving her intuition a way. first, a kind of grace shared with with the amateur spectator or collector

- Paseo & Arrastro, from Service Scènes de Corrida (Set of 2), A.R.416 & A.R.423By Pablo PicassoLocated in Palo Alto, CACreated in 1959, Pablo Picasso (Málaga, 1881 – Mougins, 1973) Paseo A.R. 416 and Arrastro A.R. 423 are numbered from the edition of 50 on the reverse and stamped with the 'MADOURA PLEIN FEU' and ‘EMPREINTE ORIGINALE DE PICASSO' pottery stamps on the reverse. Pablo Picasso was an avid fan of bullfighting his entire life, attending his first corridas when he was a child in Spain and gaining a renewed interest in the events when he settled in the South of France after World War II. Undoubtedly the theatrical drama and flashy machismo of the matadors appealed greatly to Picasso's sensibilities and resonated with his Spanish roots. In 1959, Picasso produced an 8-piece plate series, each featuring a different bullfighting scene suggested through lively stipple lines. Paseo A.R. 416 depicts a line of bullfighters highlighted by a streak of yellow. The strokes of blue above and below the figures contrast with the warm of the yellow, creating visual tension that anticipates the drama of the fight. Arrastro, from Service Scènes de Corrida, 1959 A.R. 423 features a victorious bullfighter holding his curved sword, known as an estqoue, over his head. The dark atmosphere created by the deep blue, black, and touch of brown is slashed by the intense yellow down the center of the plate. This shock of bright color evokes the excitement of the bullfighter as he stands triumphant over the bull. Catalogue Raisonné & COA: Pablo Picasso Paseo...Category
