Origin of the object

To create this very special object, the artist immersed himself in historical research around salt. Once a rare and valuable commodity, salt was often used as a ration, as a form of payment for soldiers in the Roman Empire. This is where the origin of the word salary, formerly called salarium, comes from.

Being highly prized, even valuable, salt was often hidden for fear of being stolen. It was therefore kept in unusual places, to avoid suspicion; sometimes camouflaged in a clock or a trinket, as for example.

Portrait of Judith Dubord

My practice in crafts is at first sight formal superimposed on a quest for intimate poetic-playfulness. My choices of materials, clay and glass, imply a passage through fire and a feeling of anticipation induced by their physico-chemical metamorphoses.

The object and the techniques of ornamentation and surface treatments are at the heart of my practice. I research the contrasts and dichotomies between form and decor. The cohabitation between sobriety and fantasy is one of my ways of doing things. I tirelessly explore the fine line between delicacy and disorder. Intimacy, rootedness, volubility and incongruity are my favorite themes.
