Karton de Breizh ®

As a visual artist and professional cardboard maker, I've been experimenting with the possibilities of cardboard and paper for over 10 years. I moved to Josselin in 2013 and set up the company and brand Karton de Breizh® to recycle these materials (which I collect as waste) into furniture and works of art.
My field of exploration ranges from everyday objects (boxes, frames, trays, lighting, weaving, paper basketry, hanging baskets and bowls...), to furniture (seating, storage, work or space planning). In 2019, I created the "Cocon de Carton" guest room, furnished and decorated entirely from recycled cardboard.
I'm also interested in the uses that these materials can be put to in a more artistic register, and in the possibility of mixing techniques and mediums together. Engraving, monotype, bas-relief sculpture, photography, drawing and embroidery are all ways I use to capture reality and translate it into a sensitive, personal vision that respects living things.
