Clay, in detail

Full, rounded shapes resting against one another like pebbles. The texture stays visible: you can follow the brushstroke through the terracotta, and the edges are never perfectly crisp. A short palette, from sand to brick, with no black.

Where to hang it

A bright living room, an adult bedroom, a slightly bare hallway. The warm tones hold the wall without overwhelming it, which makes it an easy piece to live with every day, even in a small space.

What it goes with

Light wood, natural linen, rattan, white or beige walls. It clashes with cold greys and electric blues: keep it away from a very contemporary black-and-white interior.

Which size to choose

On its own above a sideboard, go for the 50 × 70 cm. As a pair above a bed or a sofa, two 40 × 50 cm prints about ten centimetres apart look better balanced than a single large one.

Questions about this artwork

Matte Fine Art paper renders the terracottas slightly softer than a backlit screen, which is exactly the effect this artwork is after. On canvas, the weave brings out the texture even more; under acrylic, the tones come out deeper and more contrasted.

Yes, the shapes are soft and there is no figurative motif. In a child’s room, choose the stretched canvas: with no glass or panel, it is light and poses no risk if it falls.

Yes, the engraving is complimentary and you place it wherever you like on the artwork. On this one, the bottom right, in a light area, is the most legible spot.
