Alice Gavalet, born in 1978, is a ceramic artist blending textile inspirations with neo-Sotsassian forms. A graduate of Paris’ National School of Decorative Arts and the National School of Applied Arts and Crafts Olivier De Serres, she refined her skills under Elisabeth Garouste’s mentorship. Gavalet, a color virtuoso, sculpts ceramics into captivating shapes and rhythms, embracing delightful disproportions. Her works exude playfulness, joy, and unwavering creative instincts. Spirals, exaggerations, and layered enamels compose her distinct visual vocabulary, positioning her at the forefront of contemporary ceramics.

Gavalet’s art has graced multiple solo exhibitions, prominent private collections, and museum showcases. Notably, she was invited by the Villa Datris Foundation to participate in the “Toucher Terre: The Art of Ceramic Sculpture” exhibition from May to November 2022. These engagements underscore her growing influence and contributions to the realm of ceramic art.
