Bénédicte Petrement began her artistic career, after studying pharmacy, with a degree in Art History and Archaeology. Her professional and private career first immersed her in contemporary art through her collaboration with a private collector and then within a Brussels gallery. The meeting with her future husband, an antique dealer, then nourished her knowledge of decorative arts.
Fascinated for many years by French and Japanese ceramics from the 19th and 20th centuries, she decided to train in the practice of the wheel.
Quickly attracted by the technique of modeling, she likes the work of surfaces, organic forms that often evoke the world of nature, memories of her childhood alongside a naturalist father. Her work evokes plant, mineral structures ... we will sometimes see a seed, a volcano, a sea urchin ....
She likes this kind of sensitive imperfection of modeling, like a reflection of our human nature.
Alongside this work, she also creates lamps with mostly geometric patterns.
Also exploring the fascinating world of enamel creation, a field she approaches with the eye of a former chemist, she creates all those she works with. Her work thus skillfully merges rigor and artistic freedom.
