Brian Rochefort

Brian Rochefort è nato a Lincoln, Rhode Island, nel 1985. Attualmente vive e lavora a Los Angeles.


Brian Rochefort è uno scultore a tecnica mista e lavora principalmente con la ceramica e gli smalti per creare sculture uniche e vibranti, ricoperte di motivi astratti ed elementi materici. Il processo del suo lavoro prevede la rottura di oggetti in argilla non cotti e la loro stratificazione con altro materiale, per poi cuocere ogni strato di smalto per produrre masse vulcaniche e crateri traboccanti di colore. Le superfici delle sculture sono una miscela di grumi ruvidi e irregolari e di colature omogenee e rigonfie, tutte fissate dalla cottura in forno.


Le opere di Rochefort sono presenti nella collezioni permanenti della Fondazione NMAC, Cadice, Spagna; della Collezione Zabludowicz, Londra; della Chapman University, Orange e del Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, USA. Rochefort ha ricevuto la borsa di studio Lillian dalla Archie Bray Foundation for Ceramic Arts in Montana, nel 2007-2008.
