Julie Bergeron I Grande coquille

Julie Bergeron – Contemporary Ceramic Sculptor Inspired by Nature

‍

Julie Bergeron is a ceramic artist based in Pantin, Île-de-France, originally from Québec, Canada. With a foundation in graphic design and a passion for organic forms, she has been creating sculptural ceramic art since 2002. Her work bridges the worlds of nature and imagination, blending influences from marine life, exotic plants, and microscopic organisms.

Julie specializes in hand-built stoneware sculptures, using traditional coil techniques to craft fluid, textured forms. She intentionally leaves her pieces unglazed to highlight the raw, tactile beauty of the clay. Each sculpture is engraved and detailed with elements like suckers, spikes, and natural textures, creating objects that feel both alien and alive.

Inspired by Ernst Haeckel’s biological illustrations and the flowing lines of Art Nouveau, Julie’s collections—including Ambivalence and Coques—evoke a mysterious, hybrid world where flora and fauna collide. Signature works such as Dragons des mers, Chenille, and Coques à pointes explore balance, movement, and transformation.

Perfect for collectors of contemporary ceramic art, Julie Bergeron’s sculptures offer a raw, organic aesthetic that invites curiosity and contemplation. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind exploration of life’s strange beauty—crafted by hand, rooted in nature, and shaped by imagination.
