This week, I am holding a workshop as well as a lecture, in the atelier POP Bijou at the ENSA Limoges. The students are working from shells to make body objects.
This week, I am holding a ceramic workshop to my own students, they are experimenting with the (very funny) technique of extruding.
As part of this event, held on the 2nd of December at 6.30 pm, I will show how my work plays with the confusion between nature and artifice. I will also present the project Tennennomono, fruit of my research at the Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto and recently exhibited at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs.
I am glad to be part of the 2nd International Design Exchange Exhibition, at the Incheon National University. The show will be held until the 19th of November.
The students are are experimenting with leather to create various body objects. Always exciting to see the way ideas emerge and how the research evolves in such a short time.
Soon taking part in an artist talk at the Galeria de Arte Moderna, Lisboa
On the occasion of the 1st Lisbon Jewellery Biennial, I will be holding an artist talk, together with Ana Carolina Escobar and Pedro Sequeira, at the Galeria de Arte Moderna, on the 19th of September, at 4pm.
The series, fruit of my researches at the Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto, is currently part of the exhibition An uncertain spring, invitation to forty creators. Mixing disciplines and generations, from drawings to objects, the exhibition is woven into the collections of the modern and contemporary galleries and will last until the 3rd of October.
The exhibition, which re-examinates the art/science dialectic and the dominant approaches of the artistic and scientific exhibition, is on display in Rouillé, France, until the 4th of July.
The show Bijoux contemporains, dedicated to contemporary jewellery, runs until the 19th of September and will be part of the European Heritage Days in Niort, France.
The exhibition features pieces playing with the confusion between authenticity and imitation, between nature and artifice, referencing simulacrum, false pretences and lures. It runs until the 31st of July, as part of the SILVER festival in Legnica, Poland. A catalogue will be published on this occasion.
