Séverine Plat-Monin

Séverine Plat-Monin born in 1978 and grew up in Burgundy (Côte d’Or).

She developed a passion very early for modeling clay, shaping it instinctively since her childhood. She attended many ceramics and sculpture studios, learned direct cutting of wood and stone, took portrait and nude classes. In love with nature, it is ultimately animal art that captivates her. The foundry work and the realization of bronze sculptures make it possible to perpetuate the fragile work and to build subtle balances. Graduated from the University of Arts in Strasbourg, she teaches plastic arts and also writes artists' monographs

For Séverine, clay is the material that best captures the human gesture in all its certainties and hesitations. Clay translates all human emotions. The transition to bronze glorifies and immortalizes the work without betraying its origins. The patina magnifies the human touch. Beyond the figurative, the artist seeks to harmonize both negative and positive spaces and the textures created by the clay allow her to express a poetry that goes beyond reality. The bird theme allows her to develop the poetic universe of flight, to observe poses that often defy gravity and to allow us to travel between heaven and earth.
