Ludivine Forest
Ludivine Forest has been working with clay since she was fifteen. Initially self-taught, she joined a ceramics workshop where she created her first sculptures, mainly female bodies, exploring strength and fragility.
​
Alongside her work in the social and psychiatric fields, she trained as a potter, which enabled her to develop a detailed technical understanding of the material.
​
The different places she has lived, the cultures she has encountered and her professional career have all nourished her artistic approach.
​
Each of her works tells a story and carries a strong metaphorical dimension. Resilience is expressed both in the process and in the final form.
​
Ludivine Forest is currently working on the pomegranate, a fruit with strong symbolism. She engraves patterns and/or adds relief, such as spikes that would protect the symbols represented by the pomegranate from attack. Each piece invites the viewer to feel and reflect, creating a dialogue between the material, the artist's gesture and the space around it.
