Germe
Sculptures / 2023
Réalisées par Clément Mériot, artisan verrier
Pièces en ventes, prix sur demande.
Ce projet puise son inspiration dans les objets anciens qui peuplent les fonds de placard et les brocantes. Ils me passionnent par leur histoire, leur utilisation, ce qui a fait leur valeur et les raisons qui poussent aujourd’hui à les mettre au rebut. Mais que se passerait-il si ces objets oubliés se mettaient à germer?
Dans ce parallèle, assiettes, vase, coupes, terrines, couverts anciens deviennent support de nouveaux germes en verre. Ces extensions et hybridations les font transcender leur fonction première pour nous permettre de les découvrir sous un autre jour.
This project draws its inspiration from the old objects that populate the backs of cupboards and flea markets. They fascinate me because of their history, their use, what made them valuable and the reasons that push them to be scrapped today. But what would happen if these forgotten objects began to sprout?
In this parallel, old plates, vases, cups, terrines and cutlery become the support for new germs in glass. These extensions and hybridizations make them transcend their primary function to allow us to discover them in another light.
