Description

Ailes Noir is a one-off sculptural vessel handcrafted in stoneware by Lucia Mondadori. It sets out to capture the subtle, perpetual movement of living beings: as you walk around it, the shape changes with each new perspective, revealing a choreography of form and imagination.

An oxide slip is applied to the surface, giving it a deep black finish. The interior is vitrified, a refined contrast to the raw, brut exterior.

About Lucia Mondadori Visit Showroom →

Lucia Mondadori (b.1981) is a Brazilian ceramic artist based in Paris. Her sculptural work explores the aesthetic interplay between the organic and the symbolic. In a language of rounds and curves, where brut stoneware meets refined glaze work, the forms are voluptuous, sometimes totemic, and always serene. In her work, Lucia investigates and celebrates our relationship to the senses and to femininity, whether experienced or observed, and weaves her themes into unique pieces that strive to combine the useful, the beautiful and the sacred.
