QING RIVER
The story of this new Faux-Semblant in the silhouette of a Qing vase is inspired by a famous Chinese quote from the last of the Four Extraordinary Books of China, The Dream in the Red Pavilion. This classic of 18th century Chinese literature explores the sentimental meanderings of two characters in a historical, political and poetic context of a rare intensity.
QING ALHAMBRA
In a pinkish ochre exterior, a metaphor for the stone of the Alhambra Palace, Qing contains a unique floral melody. The history of this place and the designer's memories of it are told inside the vase. Innovative in the sequencing of the elements, moving in the superimposition of colours, Qing immerses us in the unique world of the Alhambra through its containers of equal volume and adapted to hors d'oeuvres. Through mint green and powder pink tones, he delivers the poetic testimony of Rachel Convers.
DESIDNER
BENOÎT CONVERS
It is enough to observe Benoît Convers to understand that music has accomplished man, transmitting to him another way of seeing the world. He sees creation as the mother of all questions, as the bearer of doubts that will increase the final product, as a vector of sensibilities, whether they are his own or those of others. Benoît Convers sets himself constraints, solves problems, exhausts existing forms in order to create new ones and above all considers design, the conception of objects and their manufacture, as a deeply empathetic discipline. For isn't the creation of a painting, a text, a song or an object above all a gesture to someone?"What I like is the moment when ideas come together to form a coherent whole," he says.
RACHEL CONVERS
A member of the founding trio of Ibride, along with Benoit Convers and Carine Jannin, graphic designer and designer of the mythical Ibride portraits, Rachel Convers seeks supreme beauty, knowing without a doubt that it is unattainable, a quest for perfection that leads her to constantly explore. Whether through colour or drawing, she strives to find the spark, the wisp of light, that tiny little thing that will literally animate the image and then the object.
Her design work is about intention, attention, and intuition, and is above all about the desire to signify life. Rachel Convers reinterprets, restores and reinvents all the forms of a common cultural heritage in order to invite the eye to turn towards what comes before: nature, the essence that constitutes us.
