Variations possible on demand Each part of those pieces of furniture is hand shaped and textured without using jigs or gauges, as though modeled by a sculptor or a ceramicist. The use of contrasting textures, colors and treatments that both highlight and alter the qualities of wood is intended to create a trompe-l’oeil effect. The viewers are led to question their senses.

Albane Salmon Her aesthetics is nurtured by the random effects of natural phenomenons such as erosion and natural wear of materials exposed to the elements. She also explores the poetry that lies in the slight imbalance and irregularities provided by the human eye and gesture.
