Glaze on porcelain grogged stoneware Sentimental ceramic H.20 cm x L.23 cm French ceramist based in Dubai, Hélène Olive develops a poetic body of work at the intersection of ceramics and photography. Her artistic practice is distinguished by a unique transfer technique through which photographic images become embedded within the ceramic surface, creating delicate traces of memory, texture, and emotion. Blending craftsmanship with contemporary visual language, her pieces explore themes of fragility, identity, and the dialogue between image and matter. Each work reveals subtle layers where photography and clay merge into a singular narrative object. Hélène Olive has exhibited her work as part of the Sikka Art & Design Festival in Dubai, contributing to the city’s vibrant contemporary art scene through an experimental and refined ceramic practice.
