Collection: + LOVE

“We cannot live only for ourselves. Thousands of fibers connect us with our fellow human beings; and among these fibers, like sympathetic threads, our actions generate causes that return to us as effects.”
— Herman Melville

In the post-Covid era, human connections are gradually fading. The virtual world confines us within applications, isolating our lives inside bubbles of dematerialized interactions. Work is carried out alone, facing a screen, while spaces for exchange and collective collaboration slowly disappear. In this search for protection, isolation becomes refuge, and fear sterilizes us.

Plastic — shiny and impermeable — symbolizes this condition: a flexible membrane, yet without fractures, isolating us while containing us. In the streets, anxiety becomes silent, while consumerism, in all its forms, attempts to mask a desperate thirst for love.

Yet within the dialogue of these plastic transparencies, paper emerges — a sensitive and primitive material. In its fragility, it offers a soft and organic presence, suggesting an alternative to this sterilized void.

In this body of work, collage metamorphoses beneath a layer of melted plastic: an emotional resurgence, the vestige of a celebration within the void.
