Tatjana Labossière: the energy of nature

Next ARTIST session from February 17 to 26, 2023: new artist for the next theme “ÉCLOSION”

Born in Nuremberg, Tatjana Labossière grew up with her nose in art. That of her father with whom she is at a good school and whose painting studio holds no secrets for her, both her favorite playground and obvious predilection. Here his multiple artistic passions will awaken, paradoxically opposed and yet complementary: sculpture, painting and engraving of prints.

During his German schooling, art is an integral part of the curriculum, as important as other courses. She learned to carve wood, shape clay and paint. At 10 years old, she received a workbench as a gift! At the age of 16, she started working hard, also working in stone and steel. She welds, grinds and begins sculpture, practice anchored to the body. An obvious fact that inhabits him like second nature.

Having lived in France for several years, she started cutting stones, rediscovering innate, very natural gestures. Dialogue with trees and plants, collecting stones in the mountains are fundamental moments for getting closer to the soul of Nature and nourishing one's even more stimulated creativity.

Then one day, she decided to abandon foundry work and the production of numbered sculptures in bronze and resins to only create unique works. All his works are always unitary originals exclusively made by his hands.

Aesthetics combined with technical complexity, his creations are part of the movement of a sober and elegant design, pure and fascinating, where the human being remains humble in the face of the grandeur of the elements.

“The meeting of contrary elements like water and fire causes reactions that create energy... A kind of spark. I therefore seek to create this sensation in the mind of those who look at my pieces. » Tatjana Labossiere.
