(1976-), Paris

Ceramic Artist

"My artistic identity is rooted in the belief that freedom begets
authenticity. And experimentation is key! Each piece carries the
imprint of this philosophy—a testament to the symbiotic relationship
between the creator and the clay"

Simon Holpert

Simon's CV

"I was born in France in august 1976 and I grew up in the suburbs of Paris. I am French Hungarian and I consider myself as a European Citizen. I lived almost 10 years in Austria. Since 2019, I am living and working in Budapest, Hungary.
A pivotal chapter in my artistic journey unfolded more than 10 years ago when I crossed paths with the talented Lise Meillan, a former architect turned ceramic artist. Lise became not only my mentor but also the catalyst for my exploration into the intricate world of ceramics."

The hand is my starting point. Starting point of creation, starting point of sensations. To touch and to caress is to access the intimacy of the human and to touch is also to access the intimacy of the object. I've come to understand that creation is not a rigid adherence to rules but a dynamic conversation with the medium.

VISION

I am drawn to the challenge of translating abstract inquiries into tangible forms that elicit a visceral response.
It's about creating an environment where art becomes a conduit for the audience to engage with their own inner dialogues, to confront the unspoken questions that linger in the recesses of their minds.

philosophy
questions of existence, meaning and emotion
clay as a platform for an exploration of the human experience resonating with the audience's innermost reflections
