Andrii Kyrychenko
Céramique, masse de chamotte, poterie, modelage, glaçures, engobes, feuilles d'or, cuisson au four électrique à 1200 degrés.
Cette sculpture fait partie d’une série de six œuvres qu’Andrii Kyrychenko a présenté à la 10ème Biennale internationale de Céramique de Corée du Sud en 2019 (KICB 2019), organisée dans la ville d’Incheon. Quatre de ces six œuvres ont été offertes par l’artiste à la Fondation coréenne de céramique (KOCEF). Toutes les sculptures font partie du catalogue d’exposition de l'événement et celles qui se trouvent encore en Corée sont exposées dans la section “céramique contemporaine d’Ukraine”.
Note de l’artiste :
“Avec cette création, j’ai le sentiment d’avoir atteint une harmonie dans la composition et les volumes. Mon souhait était d'emmener le public dans un voyage. L’objet que j’ai créé apparaît comme en décomposition, mais il “sonne juste” précisément car en étudiant sa décomposition, on peut trouver la trace de sa forme initiale. C’est une forme de jazz du matériau. Les revêtements ont fait l’objet de toute l’attention de Ielizaveta Portnova : la cinquième et dernière cuisson de cet objet a été conclue par la dorure de la contreforme. Environ 20 grammes de feuilles d’or se trouvent dans le cœur de cette sculpture. Cette sculpture est selon moi la quintessence de la série Shell.”

Born in 1982 in Kyiv, Andrii Kyrychenko defines himself above all as a potter. A telecommunications engineer by training, he has been practicing ceramics since 2004 in his workshop in Kyiv and has exhibited since 2006 in Ukraine, then abroad, such as in Spain, Switzerland, South Korea and China. In 2022, he was forced to leave Kyiv and found refuge in France.
Andrii Kyrychenko plays with the properties of clay to give his creations the shape of a fruit or a shell. His work focuses on the capacity of art to fix life. According to him, every fruit has a heart, a content. The intertwining of the fibers that it creates creates an outer covering that protects the seed, the one that gives life to the fruit. The idea of connecting the interior and exterior structure of the object allows it an almost infinite creative potential.
Andrii Kyrychenko tries not to interfere with the material and lets it realize itself. The properties of clay are so unique in his eyes that, in his approach, isolating it would be destroying it. Clay is for him a co-author. For his textures, he prefers the use of chamotte mass, a ductile clay with a light sand color after cooking. He finishes the creative process with soda slips and glazes. Almost all of his works feature elements of pottery, including figurative artwork.
He participates in numerous residencies and exhibitions, in Ukraine and abroad, such as at AIR Vallauris (2022), the “Révélations” exhibition at the Grand Palais Ephemere in Paris (2022), the international exhibition “MediTERRAneo” in Italy (2022) and the International Ceramic Biennale in South Korea (2019). His work was rewarded in 2017 at the “Blanc de Chine” Porcelain Biennale in Beijing and in 2022 at the “ACQUA” exhibition at the Grottaglie Ceramic Museum in Italy. Since 2019, he has been a member of the International Academy of Ceramics in Geneva.
