“While wandering in the streets I have been observing buildings construction toward the sky and found myself eagerly interested in slate material and ornamental stones.
I am wondering about post-Industrial heritage of local mineral material and widen the range of possibilities in creating functional objects for the house and in questioning history, material and its usual impact between art and design. Thus, I want to distort, democratize and increase the value of this material as a future heritage and above all as a food for thought. To bring traditional and Industrial know-how face to face for creative purposes, to reinterpret the material in formal and conceptual ways so as to provide it a new understanding. The exhibition “Domestiquer” introduces a series of work coming from researches and partnerships between local compagnies and designer, and implemented to another scale: That of the object and contemporary creation.” -
