Overview

Graduated in 2017 from the École nationale supérieure de La Cambre in printmaking, Héloïse Rival turned towards wall ceramics in 2018. Her unique works, positioned at the intersection of utility and the sublime, delicately blend narrative and ornamentation.

 

Through this medium, Héloïse Rival infuses her glazed creations with a distinct sensitivity, combining elements of ancestral utilitarian ceramics, bas-relief, and painting. Her works tell stories and create scenes that celebrate ceramic material in a unique, offbeat style, navigating between utopia and fantasy.
