Sculpture "LE SUMO" . Œuvre unique sculptée sur argile à grès crue. Inspirée de sculptures traditionnelles japonaises.
La sculpture est vide à l'intérieur car je travaille par ajouts successifs de parties pré-sculptées à la main en argile de grès.
Les finitions, avant séchage de la pièce, demandent une attention toute particulière.
Après un long séchage, la sculpture est placée dans mon four à bois anagama (four traditionnel japonais).
Après 30 heures de cuisson jusqu'à 1320°c et 6 jours de refroidissement, la sculpture est sortie du four.
Les céramiques en grès cuites dans ce type de four obtiennent une patine unique et rare (très recherchée au Japon) et sont recouvertes par endroits d'un émail naturel à la cendre posé de façon aléatoire (cendres de bois fondues) spécifique à ce type de longue cuisson dans ce type de four à bois.

Patrice Bongrand is a sculptor and ceramic artist. Thanks to the diligent practice of his great passion, bonsai, which he has been practicing for more than twenty-five years, he met Japanese masters who introduced him to the traditional arts of Japan.

For his creations, he draws inspiration from the great Japanese painters (Hokusaï and Hiroshige), the impressionists (Monet, Van Gogh, Cézanne), but he also and above all draws his inspiration from traditional Japanese arts and the beauties of nature.


Two techniques from the tradition of Japanese ceramists:

- Medium temperature raku (between 1100°c and 1000°c) to create sculptures and paintings.

- Stoneware fired in anagama wood kiln at 1320]c (firing 25 to 30 hours) for sculptures, tea bowls (chawan).
