Idylla is a French-Brazilian plastic artist, trained at the Fine Arts School in Limoges and in Product Design in Dijon. Since her beginnings in art, her work has been nourished by ancestral and traditional cultures, as well as symbolism.

“I work with wet porcelain clay, without moulds or pouring, which results in unique pieces in every respect. I carefully mould the base, respecting each stage of drying, and then sculpt with precision. I am drawn to pushing the clay to the limits of its balance, right where it can no longer continue in height or proportion. In this way, the form emerges intuitively, guided by rhythm. My sculptures reflect the duality between strength and fragility. Porcelain, with its delicacy, translucency and preciousness, perfectly expresses this contrast.

My sculptures speak of human strength and fragility. Porcelain allows the expression of this contrast, by its preciousness, translucency and delicacy. In the rite of fire, cracks are created, and I underline them with gold, so that the gaze rests on where fragility has become strength. I am not looking at the perfect form, but I let myself be guided by the cohesion between gesture and feeling. Thus, through rhythm, the form is created, it exists. Thus, in the darkness, the earth reveals to us the secret of the creation of flowers.”
