1.INSPI ARTISTS/DESIGNERS (page3to5)

All of these artists/designers inspired me for their subtil connexion to "materiality" and for the use of technologies, machines & "savoir-faire" in order to bring to life their own Phantasy.

  • Laureline Gaillot For her crasy work with Augmented reality, 3D print and the variety of applications of her aesthetic.

  • Gabriella Veszpremi For her love for patterns and colors and materials. Fashion objects are like fauvist paintings.

  • Filippo Nassetti For his fine and strong production with generative design. At the intersection of Post Primary aesthetic and neo mythology.

  • Frederiksons Stallard For their incredible and sensitive vision of chaos. Sculptures are Post Apocalyptic monuments which bring us to their "new reality".

  • Charlie Schuck For his romantic iced and sunny vision of the feminity: powerful fragility.

2.INSPI DIGITAL FABRICATIONS (6)

For the digital fabrication, the point of start of the project. I was inspired by some plugins like Phyzarealm in order to generate rock or crystal patterns with parametric design on grasshopper.

3.MACHINES&TECHNICS (7)

Selected technics & machines for the leather transformation and the fabrication of object:

Leather modeling Leather Biocpmposite Fab Bag
CNC TRIMING CUTTING
MOULD ALGINATE STICHING
VACCUM BOX MOLD/OR NOT POINT SELLIER

4.INSPI LEATHERCRAFTS (8)

What I truly like in leathercrafts, it is the hand's work: strong, precise and relly technical. With this project I really want to see the connexion between my work as a designer/artist and the "savoir-faire" of Emeline & Virginie the artisans.

5.INSPI MINERALS (9to10)

Minerality for me is really the paradox between Beauty & Chaos. In term of shapes, colors it is strong and fragile. When I grab a nice and small stone in my hand (like a precious), it leads me the consciousness of the universe. Gravity is the force of attraction between bodies, masses, this is where all started and I'm really attracted by this idea, concept, concrete and physical dimension. I find it beautiful.

6.INSPI CRYSTALS (11)

7.PROJECTION (12to18)

In my previous work, I started my exploration with colors and patterns like a painter. When I finished to paint I always had on my palette leftovers plastic paint that I found intersting. So I started to experiment this medium as a full graphic object that you can see in the pictures. Then I plastified some pieces in order to obtain a full object: pictural material. In this "Frankenstein" I used molded leather on rock with this pictural material in order to build up a kind of sculptural container. The idea was to find a volume based on the material itself.
