Here, Aude asserts her ceramics practice in her own studio and confronts her creations with the public eye, revealing stoneware as her preferred medium. She handcrafts families of sculptures with a minimalist aesthetic. Playing with the contrasts of natural hues and the raw texture of the material, her works brush up against one another, converse and link up, and Aude makes memory and transmission - visible and invisible - the essential subjects of her work. Nurtured by women artists such as Yayoi Kusama and her accumulations - "My life is a pea lost among millions of other peas" - or Louise Bourgeois, for whom the themes of maternity and femininity are so dear, Aude Bray-Deperne also draws her inspiration from Valentine Schlegel's organic ceramics, turned or mounted with a colombin, whose volumes themselves reveal the influence of Hans Arp and Henry Moore.

She shapes stoneware slabs by hand, placing them against each other and bonding them to give body to her sculptures. She creates silent dialogues between the curves and hollows of her works. Stoneware - whether white, black, grey or red - is worked in monochrome in its natural hue, without glazes, to preserve its organic properties.
