Juliette: The Glass Tamer
Daughter, granddaughter and great-granddaughter of (great) glassmakers, Juliette fell into glass paste when she was little.
His great-grandfather François Décorchemont developed this technique of "lost" wax casting, later perfected by his father and uncle.
Juliette first distanced herself from this heritage by studying Applied Arts in sculpture at ENSAAMA (Olivier de Serres in Paris), then a Master of Plastic Arts at the Sorbonne to discover other techniques, to better appropriate it by beginning a new exploration of the material and imprinting her own artistic research on it.
In 2014, she took over her father's workshop and became the winner of the regional prize of the Ateliers d'Art de France.
His exploration starts with light, and its encounter with matter, its distortion, its diffusion, its trajectory and the mise en abyme of transparency.
Both a prism of emotions and matter, his works bear witness to this ballet of the sensitive that is his journey to the heart of glass paste.
Juliette lives and works in Normandy.
