Alice Riviere

After studying Philosophy and History at the University of Bordeaux, she turned to learning drawing and volume at the Emile Cohl School in Lyon, from which she graduated in 2011.

Subsequently, she took on freelance missions in the cartoon world in Paris, then flew to the United States. There, she found a position as a portraitist-caricaturist at the Epcot theme park (WaltDisneyWorld). She will draw more than 3000 faces in 1 and a half years.

In 2014, back in France, in Lyon, she became educational manager in her training school, the Emile Cohl school.

In 2019, after the birth of her daughter, she started evening classes in ceramics for the pure pleasure of leaving her computer and getting her hands back into the material. In 2021, she moved to Drôme, and set up her ceramics and drawing workshop at Baume d'Hostun, within the Third Place, le Chalutier.

She has always had a strong interest in volume, undoubtedly transmitted by her mother, a sculptor. Terracotta, especially sandstone, appears to him to be a solid, durable material, like stone, even if it retains a certain fragility despite everything. She likes to make ceramics like sculptures halfway between 2D drawing; and 3D in the round, in the style of bas-reliefs.
