\"\"<\/p>\n

Of everything I’ve presented,
\nI think iron is the most misunderstood of all the products.
\nYet, elegance never arises solely from good design;
\nit also arises from the work with iron,
\nand this aspect seems completely overlooked.<\/p>\n

Because there’s iron that’s bent and cut, which is what we see everywhere,
\nbut there’s also iron that’s heated red-hot to be
\nshaped with a hammer, thinned, given a force
\nthat suddenly makes it seem to join the plant world\u2026<\/p>\n

and it’s neither the same work nor the same result.<\/p>\n

It was the discovery in Morocco of small workshops that have remained in an almost original form of this work
\nthat prompted me to explore its possibilities. And it’s from a long-standing collaboration with an artisan and then his son
\n(because in this case, the knowledge was truly passed down) that these hybrid objects, poised between simplicity and sophistication, were born.
\nA strange balance between artisanal know-how that has retained a primitive strength and a culture nourished in museums by the universal history of art.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

From the idea to the design, …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

… then to the workshop, …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

… to achieve the imagined object, …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

… it was necessary to forge a long-standing partnership with a Moroccan craftsman., …<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…and then his son.<\/p>\n

Because, and this has become all too rare, in this case the transmission of know-how did indeed take place.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

…And it is precisely to perpetuate this heritage despite the difficulties encountered along the way that
\nwe want to highlight this work, which has become so unique.<\/p>\n
