I like to work with clay in different ways but my favorite skill is to throw on the wheel. Either I will keep it round or I will reshape it into organic features. I like to work on the texture to get different effects. I have enjoyed working with clay since I was a child growing up in the small village of Confignon in Geneva, in Switzerland. I learned pottery's skills from my father, Pascal Ducimetière, who became a potter on his fourties.
In 1994, I started giving pottery classes at the local workshop in Confignon and in 2004, I became the President of the "Atelier de poterie de Confignon".
I lived in Malaysia for two years and got the chance to join Mr Cheah's workshop in Kuala Lumpur. I expanded my skills in Asian pottery techniques in his workshop but also by joining some international workshops and exhibitions in Asia. Back to Geneva I extended my skills in CFPArts and been graduated in Ceramic in 2019. Since then, I like to create new glazes on my own. My inspiration and process here.
