The Artist
Clement Hoeck is a ceramic artist and a cabinetmaker. He divides his time between working at the potter’s wheel and shaping wood in his two workshops. He uncovered a passion for the potter’s wheel while pursuing a college degree in Visual Arts at Cégep de l’Outaouais in 1996. To hone his craft abilities he obtained a vocational degree in ceramics from Montreal’s Centre de céramique Bonsecours in 2000 and at the same time worked in various cabinet making shops. From 2000 to 2003, he studied cabinetmaking and architectural millwork at l’École québécoise du meuble in Montréal. He creates original, functional and decorative ceramic pieces as well as furniture crafted from local and exotic woods.
