About the Item

Trained with Master ceramic sculptors: statuary technique with Maitre Guémard from the Louvre Museum in Paris, Catherine Benoit sculptor from Saint-Tropez, Valérie Lebrun, contemporary ceramist, graduated from the Limoges factory, specializing in primitive firing (Africa) and Raku with Professors Marcel Muller and Anna Ber. 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

La Fontaine
Located in Atlanta, GA
Born in Melun in 1957, Jager is a French sculptor and painter. Passionate about equitation, he is famous for making representations of horses in plaster and bronze in all their forms. He studied at the School of Fine Arts in Dijon and is currently living in France. Rather than just being an artist, he describes himself as a dreamer: unpredictable and passionate. For Frédéric JAGER, beauty is a must. His style, classic, figurative, is stunning in this world of contemporary art. Bringing bronze to life, his works always capture the energy and beauty of the horse “Because unlike men, a horse is always beautiful, always strong, always sad.” Several large companies, such as HERMES, NINA RICCI, goldsmith MELLERIO, CHEVIGNON, SOCIETE GENERALE, HORSE WOOD, watches PEQUIGNET, SWEATERIE, have called upon him for sculptures, decorative objects, advertising works, or trophies for the races. He has had numerous solo exhibitions, and has also participated in a myraid of art fairs such as the ‘Salon International de Saumur’, the Animal Sculpture Biennale of Rambouillet, the Derby Horse in Art...
