Marlène Mocquet's art asserts itself, above all, as a feast—generous and overflowing. She unfolds narratives rich in vibrant colors and abundant forms. ‘Le Château aux Allumettes’, a sculpture and fantastical world, showcases Mocquet's sophisticated mastery of technique and unique savoir-faire. This expertise, developed over seven years as an artist-in-residence at the prestigious Cité de la Céramique de Sèvres, has also secured her work a place in the permanent collections of the Musée de Sèvres. Mocquet achieves a striking balance between dynamic movement and meticulous anatomical precision. Figural elements are sculpted with voluptuous detail, creating a sense of wonder and inviting viewers into a delicate, imaginative world.
