Florentin Brunz Gaborieau

Marie-France Kok-Adam is a Dutch artist renowned for her work in ceramics and monumental art. Her artistic practice is deeply rooted in traditional ceramic techniques, which she masterfully combines with innovative approaches to create contemporary pieces. Kok-Adam's work often explores the interplay between form, texture, and space, resulting in artworks that are both visually striking and thought-provoking.

While specific details about her techniques are limited, her recognition as a ceramicist and monumental artist suggests a profound understanding of materials and a commitment to pushing the boundaries of traditional art forms. 
Marie-France Kok-Adam began as a botanical illustrator in Paris and became fascinated by tiles in Amsterdam. She worked with industrially pressed tiles but adapted them to suit her needs. Her creations likely reflect a harmonious blend of time-honoured craftsmanship and modern artistic expression.
