Terre Brute ( from the French 'raw clay') is a project created in 2021 by Anastasia Gladkova, a ceramic artists from Paris. Anastasia graduated with a Master's in Fine Arts at L’école supérieure d'arts et médias de Caen, France, in 2017."Through Terre Brute, I embrace the fluidity and organic forms found in nature, exploring the harmonious fusion of abstract art and biomorphism. As an artist working mostly with stoneware clay, I am inspired by the inherent qualities of the material I work with.
I express movement, as if my sculptures were frozen in a moment of transformation. I like to think of them as physical souvenirs of an evolving landscape ; hills rolling under the wind, ocean waves flowing in a rhythmic pattern, rocks weathering in a riverbed."
