French artiste, Dora Stanczel after being awarded a master’s degree in digital arts and attended numerous training sessions with the best porcelain artists in Europe, she opens her own ceramics studio in 2015.
Her luminous artworks and wall sculptures combine exceptional craftsmanship with a poetic aura. This constant quest results in the collaboration with the material and not in its control. The beauty lies in this collaboration which allows unique and spectacular transformation of the porcelain.
On the search for the boundary of the material, her art reveals unexpected shapes and its natural beauty. Her technical inventivity allows to discover the unseen territory of the porcelain. Playing with the firing and inclusion of textile in her workprocess create subtle forms, lively and timeless artworks. Contrary to the perfection of the classical craftmanship, she stands out for defending the importance of imperfection. Beyond the technical mastery of slipcasting, these unexpected imperfections are the focal point of her art. This is an endless quest for the collaboration with the porcelain instead of its control, a constant research of the harmony. She tames porcelain with a fine understanding: accept deformation, triggers errors, reuse what is discarded, reintegrate what is broken and so divert the technical process.
Dora's inspiration lies behind the curves of undulations or golden curls there are images of the ocean and waves appearing.
