About the Item

In her work “Régénérescence,” finely chiseled metallic pieces turn into scales clustered together in voluptuous curves, seemingly inspired by a snake. The same metal that was once used to shape soldiers' armor now calls to mind the shell of an animal protector. This animal mimicry reminds of that the source of our strength is our belonging to the power of the natural cycle. The fire Frescaline wields to create her metal sculptures isn’t an instrument that demonstrates humanity’s domination over nature. Instead, fire from the natural world is what allows Frescaline to create. Juliette Frescaline is a French artist and metal sculptor who focuses on transforming the often discarded material: iron wire. Trained in applied arts, specializing in metal, Frescaline received her Diplôme des Métiers d’Art at Olivier de Serres. She developed her technique by focusing her research on what textures feel like to the touch. Frescaline is a Laureate of the Villa Seurat foundation, where she has also been a guest of honor several times. Frescaline seeks to emphasize ordinary beauty in her works. Her metal sculptures suggest organic forms that spread, seemingly taking over the spaces they inhabit, becoming almost animal-like in the way they move. They force us to commune with nature. Frescaline has a particular affection for weeds: these invasive plants which, silently, disturb the established order of our roads. She transforms these invasions into magnificent bouquets. These bouquets invite us to see these strangers as familiar, accomplices who protect us from monotony, liven up, and beautify our daily lives.
