Céline Wright – « handmade in France »

Céline Wright’s creations find their origins in reviewed and corrected ancestral techniques using natural and non-polluting materials. The fabrication of a light requires different types of highly technical operations.
From a simple pencil stroke which defines the lines of the object, Céline Wright sculpts a shape that she wishes to be « unique and lively ». Like a sculptor, she creates a volume thanks to specific materials, which will then turn into a shape.

In the manner of a couturier who works with fabric, Céline “listens” to the paper and brings back to former glory what she believes to be a “forgotten material” in our industrial society.

The Japanese paper, called Washi, embodies many virtues which are little-known in Western countries: tear-proof, unbreakable, flexible, delicate and functional, its high resistance hides behind its apparent fragility, which could easily compete with other materials.

« Being able to associate craftsmanship and design »; Céline Wright considers that craftsmen actively contribute to decorating and design. She also notes that in Oriental countries, craftsmen are designers who use natural materials to create decorative and functional objects through sophisticated fabrication techniques.
Recognized in the world of design for her environmental and sustainable values, she claims an artisanal approach to her creations and her mindset.
