Perfect harmony

Exquisite tea bowls in raku technique, modeled by hand and masterfully elaborated in elaborate, repeated glazing, firing and reduction, are the focus of Nani Champy-Schott's creative process. The apparent simplicity of the textures or the colors unites in perfect harmony with the form of each of her exhibits. They are a unique invitation to feel the surface with hands and eyes and thus to follow the artist's gaze.
