Juliette Clovis

Born in 1978, Juliette Clovis is a French visual artist and ceramist. After studying law and art history at the Ecole du Louvre, Juliette worked for a while in the communications field before taking a further course in graphic design at the École des Gobelins and finally devoting herself to her art.

Juliette Clovis’ sculptures straddle the line between the natural and the artificial, combining the striking beauty with an underlying sense of danger, in a dreamlike and provocative commentary on the relationship between humanity and the environment, the power relations between what is organic and what is man-made, and the notion of an incessant, universal cycle endlessly passing on new forms of life as death approaches. Juliette Clovis creates budding, biomorphic sculptures, recreating new textures between animal and vegetable.

Multidisciplinary, technical mastery has always been central to her work. Her current work focuses mainly on sculpture and porcelain. Her sculptures are composed of scales recreated in ceramic, some bisque, some glazed. These porcelain scales, which the artist assembles, can be used in an infinite number of ways to create volume.

maison parisienne presents pieces from her Kinetic Garden collection, as well as limited series of pieces inspired by botany.

In 2023, Juliette collaborated with the prestigious Dom Pérignon brand, for whom she created and signed an exceptional limited edition: 50 porcelain scale armours adorning Dom Pérignon Vintage 2008 jeroboams.

Her sculpture Obsidian Knot features in the exhibition “Iris Van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses”, initially presented at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. The exhibition will travel to Brisbane, Australia in 2024 and Rotterdam in the Netherlands in 2025.
