“La mailles, le point, la ligne, le fil, la couleur.”

On the islands of Lake Titicaca, the weavers are mostly men.
They go everywhere with their tools, weaving on every path and in all weathers.
Their weavings are also part of their skin, as they wear their stories. This second skin has had a profound effect on him, crochet has become an extension of his body, enabling him both to meditate and to express his story and his personality.

Evolutionary Motif Vase

The vase gradually takes on a unique shape made up of repetitive motifs thanks to a special crochet stitch technique based on tension and widening.
The crochet stitch used is also unique.
The creative process involves nothing more than cotton thread and crochet: the structure takes shape naturally thanks to the different tension stitches used during the assembly of the vase, so no structure is used.
