In 1950, even before deciding on their union, Jacques Ruelland, then a painting student, and Dani Dupin, a sculpture student, both at the Beaux-Arts de Paris, decided to work together through a medium of expression that immediately seemed to suit them: ceramics. Their studio, located on rue de Buci, allows them to immerse themselves in the creative world of Saint-Germain-des-Prés where they rub shoulders with artists from all disciplines, while they exhibit at the Galerie du Siècle. Very influenced by the world of dance, where they have many friends, they create families of objects, whose group dynamics, allows them to transpose a scenographic game into a plastic proposal. In 1970, they moved to the Avignon region where they had two workshops for twenty years. In this period, the Ruellands attach themselves as much to the form and identity of an object within a family, as to the space that surrounds it and that is the vector of a recomposable visual game.
