Denise Bresciani, architect, ceramic designer, and visual artist, currently lives and works in Marseille.
She holds a DEA - State Diploma in Architecture from the Politecnico University of Milan and a specialization in sculpture obtained at the Faculty of Fine Arts of Granada.
Denise Bresciani's practice encompasses architecture, design, and visual arts without feeling the influence of a specific school or style. Her intuitive approach flourishes through experimental paths inspired by nature, archaeology, vernacular architecture, and the iconic figures of Constantin Brancusi, Giuseppe Penone, or Isamu Noguchi. A lineage that expresses her fascination with natural forces, leading her through journeys in Africa or India, Mexico or Japan, to embrace clay for astonishingly spontaneous, quasi-primitive organic ceramic work.
In a unique interval between past and present, life and death, human and non-human, her pieces materialize all possible metamorphoses, stemming from a succession of gestures combining technical mastery and pure exploration to constitute a collection of mutating objects halfway between utility and the freest form of sculpture.
