Claire de Lavallée works all the clays and colors - sandstone, earthenware, porcelain, ocher, white and dark clays ... She enjoys playing with flexible and moving forms. Her bright and sparkling enamels often only partially cover the pieces, revealing the raw material between two drips or on the edge. Her large deep blue basins invite to weightlessness, her platinum cups have the brilliance of the stars... the set evokes portraits of planets and nebulae, maps of the sky.
Long self-taught in ceramic technique, Claire de Lavallée later studied with Héléna Klug, and sought to compose her porcelain and sandstone enamels, from talc, from chalk... She learned to work on a potter's wheel with Augusto Tozzola.
