About

Amélie Bissonnette dans son atelier de céramique

Artist statement

At the crossroads between ceramic sculpture, illustration and photography, my works present fanciful worlds filled with animals. Each character, shaped in clay, bears the imprints and folds of the work of my hands, which I choose not to erase. These perfect imperfections symbolize strength, vulnerability and individuality.

Thumbelineas rabbits

Since 2017, following a pseudo-scientific approach, I have recorded the presence of lapineas thumbelineas, or thumbelineas rabbits, in various natural and urban settings in Canada.

Photographed against grand landscapes and rich textures, my figurines are sentinels, pleading for the conservation of natural environments. These small ceramic specimens magnify details that often go unnoticed and draw our attention to the beauty of the ecosystems that surrounds us, while exposing their fragility and the urgency of preserving them.
