Edition of 20
[order]
La Grande Voile is a connection between Paris and Marseille. A story of love and friendship born with the feet in the water and the fingers on the keyboard. Atelier M. Combier and Studio Milon discover each other between two feeds, bond and decide to imagine a meeting in the digital age. They capture it on these silk scarves, which are tied and untied over the seasons. This collaboration supports Italian craftsmanship and its know-how.

Mobilier National, 2019 Residency (Jan-Oct)
Nées des Archives» is a collective of artisans, artists and designers who’s working on creating an evolving and eco-responsible clothing collection during their residency at the french Institution Mobilier National in Paris.
I worked as artistic director and photographer doing most of the visual creation work. I also designed and supervised the production of all the lycra pieces, using the pattern we created.
Part of the collection is based on a pattern inspired by the Mobilier National archive database called MNLAB. I twisted the shapes of these objects in a series of digital collages that I subsequently declined in combinations, tops and skirts in satin lycra.
Design and creation of the pattern for this coat made in 100% upcycled wool made available to the institution's tapestry workshops. It was subsequently made entirely by hand and using a traditional carpet stitch by the artisan Margot Parcillié.
