i quote j-m doix himself: “it was a high school drawing teacher who introduced me to ceramics very early on as well as the contemporary art center at the château de ratilly (89) run by the pierlot family. It was there that i discovered, among others, the works of hamada and leach and i chose to become a potter.
roger jacques, robert deblander then anne kjaerjaard and jean linard were the first professionals to give me help and advice
when i moved in 1968 and built a 3 chamber wood fired oven (first fired in 1969).
from the start i gravitated towards a production that was familiar to me, the poyaudine tradition and popular art. I make raw or slag-enamelled pieces but my attachment to other cultures has never been left behind, my catalan origins perhaps explain my taste for baroque exuberance and glazed earthenware, a technique that i i developed alongside my high temperature work.
my utilitarian pottery, my architectural or sculptural creations have been developed at the heart of these multiple encounters, for more than forty years\." this piece has an attribution mark,
i am sure that it is completely authentic and take full responsibility for any authenticity
