The collection
In this playful series, Amélie Fontaine explores the volumes of Ko-sometsuke porcelains, humble but full of warmth pieces whose design dates back to 1616–1650, at the very origins of Arita ceramics. Artisans decorate them using the traditional technique of rice-paper transfer before glazing, creating subtle variations in thickness and colour from one piece to the next.
The artist
Amélie Fontaine is a French illustrator and ceramicist. Her whimsical, childlike line brings to life a visual universe of plants, animals, and delightful characters, reminiscent of a natural history cabinet. She collaborates regularly with major newspapers such as The New York Times and Le Monde, and received the Bologna Ragazzi Award in 2017 for her non-fiction book 'Planète Migrants'.
