Florence Guillaume-Gentil
Potter
La Sagne
About
« Continually in search of new objects, forms, processes of decoration to then apply them to my creation, I invented a universe through the pottery. »
At 17, after a preparatory year at the art school of La Chaux-de-Fonds, Florence Guillaume-Gentil followed an informal apprenticeship with a potter. Craftsmanship, art, that’s what she wanted to do with her life. Private life got involved, each over the years nurtured the other, none dominated. At least until 2013, when the boutique corner was created in his studio.
« How lucky to have in our home, workshop and shop. Whatever the work to be done, I organize it as I please and am available to receive the visitor. »
Indicated at the edge of the road by a large panel POTTERY, his studio is hidden behind the windows, from where you can see a sample of his work. After ringing, push the door, you arrive in the corner shop. Just behind, the oven, the lathe, the spray booth, the shelves, the worktops, the earth and Florence Guillaume-Gentil to say to you: “come, a little visit does not commit you to anything!
