LA POTIERE DU BARRY

LA POTIERE DU BARRY

I discovered pottery in the 90s. I was looking for a hobby craft, rather basketry or leather work, and I found only pottery next to my house.
I went to try, without much conviction, and it was in this house for all that the click took place. At that time, I wanted to learn everything about this profession. I trained in turning, little by little, before deciding in 2011 to make it my profession; I then enrolled in the CFA of ST-Quentin la Poterie.
Today, I realize that it would take at least 2 lifetimes to learn everything about this vast profession.

I propose a production of crockery, utilitarian objects and decoration in stoneware, mainly turned, rather unique pieces and very small series.
I make my own glazes, some with ash and others not, glossy, matte or satin because I don't want to limit myself.
At the moment, I apply the glazes on a red iron or black oil drop, sometimes letting the red or black appear.
I am always surprised at the opening of the kiln of the result obtained.
