Terre Brute identity

From Terre Brute (Anastasia Gladkova):

Throughout my work, I try to embrace the fluidity and organic forms found in nature. I am interested in the harmonious fusion of abstraction and biomorphism. I am also inspired by the inherent qualities of the material I work with.

I aim to express movement, as if my sculptures were frozen in a moment of transformation. I like to think of them as physical souvenirs of an evolving landscape ; hills rolling under the wind, ocean waves flowing in a rhythmic pattern, rocks weathering in a riverbed.

I try to capture the essence of organic forms in my sculptures.

I see my work as an analogy for the unbreakable bond between human beings and the environment, embodying a sense of harmony and unity. As such my sculptures interact with their surrounding space, inviting the viewer to engage with them from different perspectives.

Terre Brute is the artistic practice of Anastasia Gladkova. Her studio is based in Paris. The logo and monogram were designed in 2020 by Raphaël de La Morinerie, based on the shapes of the existing Naive typeface.
