Important to mention that Escande colors and composes her clay into patterns, and assembles lines and selected fragments while letting the clay express itself through chance. She makes sure to assemble porcelain or stoneware as the main foreground for her work, with no external glazing. The result of her technique? A naked color clay. Each piece of Mylène Escande ceramics is a search to find the perfect balance between the graphic, controlled side and the natural, raw, mineral one. Mylène Escande ceramics embellishes each piece with divine designs including curves, lines, squares, asymmetrical shapes, and whatever flows with her creativity at that moment.

More About Mylène Escande

She is a very talented graphic designer but also a jeweler who likes to create bridges between medium and skills. Some of her most important sources of inspiration come from minimalist art, architecture, or different craft techniques such as marbled paper or nerikomi, a Japanese technique that uses color clay. It is through form, shape, texture, and color that Mylène seeks to instill in her objects a magnetic and contemplative fascination. She seeks to create pieces that have a special meaning behind each, created by her own hands, and happy to see them arrive in the hands of people who love ceramics and clay objects.
