In this awe-inspiring collection, the artist harnesses the power of color decomposition to translate existing images of coral reefs into mesmerizing textile totems. Each composition unveils a kaleidoscope of hues, delicately woven together to mirror the enchanting underwater spectacle of a coral reef. Shades of azure blues, vib

Goals

The collection of "Totem - a Wall's Jewelry" takes inspirations from the culture, natural resources, and commercial activities of a specific country, city or region. Combining rare, precious, and unexpected components such as silver thread, rubber, and copper wire, the final textile panel becomes a window into a community, open to conversation and an invitation to travel and discover parts of the world one has yet to explore.
Not limited to fibers, my work encompasses any materials that allow thread-drawing or hand-weaving methods inter alia to invent contemporary textile art.

Process

I bring my clients conceptual visions to life by creating artworks that surpass their expectations while staying true to my artistic signature which makes any collaboration uniquely distinctive and an enjoyable process. I work with a clear consciousness of environmental challenges. Using recycled or repurposed elements and sourcing materials from fair trades, any artwork is a thoughtful approach to the question of sustainability. I am driven by the creation of works that redefine our notions of unity, concept, representation and personal expression.
The inspiration for this commission was the preservation of the Ocean and the importance of Coral reefs. The studio then gathered informations and inspirations for each Totem and came up with mood boards, references and digital stagings. Once the client confirmed the size, colour, overall concept and digital visuals of the commission, the production process began. An image was selected and then divided in twenty stripes. Every inch of each stripes was closely observed in order to determine which color was more prominent in the given section. Only once all the colors were identified could the weaving process start. This commission is a composition of more than five hundred colors and threads combinations.
