Canali | Under The Surface - Brian Rochefort: The Interview

From the Galápagos and the Amazon to East Africa, Brian Rochefort’s travels return in his work as abstract forms: craters, coral formations, mineral deposits, eroded landscapes. Born in Rhode Island and based in Los Angeles, the artist talks about a practice built on ceramic processes, glaze chemistry and a deep interest in geology, and about the dialogue with Canali. Ceramic and fabric speak different languages, yet both depend on research, precision and successive layers. In Rochefort’s sculptures, those layers rise to the surface and reveal themselves. In a Canali jacket, they remain largely unseen, yet their contribution is felt whenever it is worn. Under the Surface — Shaping the Unseen Brian Rochefort.
