Studio GARDNER is very pleased to introduce Pauline Esparon to our collectible contemporary offering.
PAULINE ESPARON plays with the notion of «rawness», a form of archaism, a primary state of materials before their standardization by industry. Forms from the vegetal, the animal or the mineral worlds can be intertwined. Her works always start with the investigation of materials, and slide from an instinctive research to a definite shape.
This approach is as sensible as contextual, by questioning both the qualities of materials and the culture of materials, their heritage, their survival, their systems. Each project envisions a proposition to tweak production for the better and consider humble materials, processes, purposes of production as well as possible perspectives for crafts.

Studio GARDNER is pleased to introduce the work of multidisciplinary Belgian artist and designer JUMANDIE SEYS.
In a search for pure expression of form and material, Seys designs objects with a sculptural purity. His work is characterised by a constant dialogue between contrasting elements and the search for balance - redefining classic rules by combining modern and digital mediums with artisanal crafts.
Drawing inspiration from the past and applying it to his contemporary designs, Seys creates visual and tactile tension in his work.
