Born in 1956, Elisabeth Bourget, an architect by training, has always linked her taste for artistic practice and for the natural sciences. At 40, the age of a turning point, she embarked on the path of ceramic creation with training at the Maison de la Céramique in Dieulefit then created the Atelier du Grand Chemin in the green setting of Center-Ardèche. She plays there on the different strings of her bow to develop her personal creation: the "Rocks" which implement the geological process: Sedimentation, folding, crevices from which the shine of the enamel or glass is exuded, making think of the crystals of the geodes, sometimes invite the eye to penetrate inside. Sometimes rough, sometimes polished surfaces offer a vibrant sensuality to the touch. the "fellows" with whom she rediscovers the dynamics of sketches taken from life and other decorative objects where architectural landscapes take place.
After a visit to the Beaux-Ars in Nantes (too conceptual for her taste) Elisabeth Bourget obtained a license in plant biology as well as a diploma in architecture. Having always sketched, tested different techniques, dry pastel, acrylic, creates all over the place, she finds with clay, in Anne Mangeot's workshop in Lyon, the unifying material of all her aspirations and chooses the requirement of ceramics to make your own way.
