Since 2002, Julien Truchon has been creating and exhibiting his work in Patrimonio, Corsica, the land from which he draws his inspiration. Immersed at an early age in the world of pottery and arts and crafts by his father André, Julien decided to study economics in Montpellier. This experience made him aware of his fascination with clay. Determined to pursue his dream, Julien set off to train as a ceramic turner at Saint Amand en Puisyae in Burgundy. This intensive 2-year apprenticeship enabled him to approach the craft with technique and rigor. In 2004, winner of the SEMA Jeunes prize (Société d'Encouragement aux Métiers d'Art) for the Corsica region, he concluded his training with an initiatory trip to Japan, where he met Japanese potters practicing traditional wood firing. Today, Julien practises his art between the sea and the mountains, in a 25-year-old workshop with a lovely exhibition space where you can discover his work.

PATRIMONIO
Lorsque l'on vient du col de Teghime, nous sommes surpris par cette église Saint Martin à Patrimonio. Celle-ci a cet aspect car elle n'a pas été recouverte d'enduit. Les trous dans la pierre ocre, utiles à la construction des échafaudages, donne à cette église du Cap Corse cette particularité. Datant de 1653, elle a probablement remplacé un édifice antérieur. Ce monument historique a été remanié au XIXieme siècle.
