Erosion's Memory

Erosion’s Memory is a limited-edition collection in which Audrey Vo Van excavates more than clay - she unearths silence, collapse, and the quiet persistence of time. Each piece begins with a block of stoneware, approached not as something to mould, but as something to uncover. Inspired by kurinuki, the Japanese technique of carving, Audrey works by removing rather than adding - allowing form to emerge as if it had always been there, waiting beneath the surface.

The sculptural vessels carry the raw imprint of landscapes she has contemplated during solitary hikes in the French Alps: the fractured edge of a cliff, the soft crumble of a weathered rock, the deep creases where wind and rain have passed for centuries. Their surfaces seem to breathe - a meeting point between smooth, untouched planes and rough, mineral scars.

These works are not mere objects. They are fragments of geological memory - holding the slow rhythm of erosion, the breath of stone, and the stillness that lingers long after the forces of change have passed. Each piece is a reminder that what endures is shaped as much by loss as by creation.
