ALAN LOUIS

BORN IN BRITAIN IN 1992, ALAN LOUIS STARTED HIS PROFESSIONAL COURSE AS AN OFFICER IN THE MERCHANT NAVY. HOWEVER, HIS TRUE DESIRE LIES IN THE FIELDS OF CREATION, DRAWING AND CERAMICS, WHICH HE EXPLORED IN AN SELF-TAINED WAY. IT WAS IN PORTUGAL THAT HE DECIDED TO INVEST IN THE ART OF CERAMICS AND IN FALL 2021 HE CREATED HIS OWN BRAND, ALAN LOUIS.

ALAN LOUIS CONSIDERS ART AND DESIGN AS WAYS TO COMMUNICATE HIS EMOTIONS AND ASPIRATIONS. HER CREATIONS (FURNITURE AND ART OBJECTS) TELL STORIES THROUGH THEIR ORGANIC SHAPES AND EVOCATIVE CONTOURS, INTEGRATING VARIOUS MATERIALS SUCH AS WOOD, METAL AND GLASS IN A LIMITLESS CREATIVE PROCESS. THROUGH HIS WORKS, ALAN LOUIS INSPIRES AN ATMOSPHERE OF POETRY, FREEDOM AND SIMPLICITY: HE CREATES UNIQUE OBJECTS THAT CAPTIVATE ATTENTION AND CHALLENGE ESTABLISHED STANDARDS, PLAYING ON THE DUALITY BETWEEN MINIMALISM AND EXTRAVAGANCE.

EACH PIECE IS COMPLETELY HANDMADE BY THE ARTIST, SIGNED AND NUMBERED, IN HIS WORKSHOPS LOCATED IN PORTUGAL, IN RIBATEJO.
