After studying design and attending a glass school for Aurélie, and training in ceramic arts and working as an artist’s assistant for Samuel, we founded our studio as a duo in 2008 and settled in Brittany. We work with pâte de verre, an ancient technique that allows glass to be used as a sculptural material through the molding process.

At first, we both worked in parallel before gradually converging towards a shared creative vision. Our collaboration truly began when a sculpture emerged from one of us, shaped by the universe of the other. From that moment, the boundary between our individual practices became porous, allowing for a fruitful confrontation without being forced. It became more enriching for both of us to refine the essential elements of our work through dialogue, enabling us to better distinguish and develop them.

In essence, working as a duo teaches us to verbalize intimate aspects of our artistic process and translate them into an understandable and communicable vision. The effort required to shape the different elements of a sculpture helps us push beyond our usual creative fields.

The duo itself is a fully-­fledged artist, a kind of third entity born from two creators, while still allowing each of us to pursue personal work.
