CHAPTER 1
FORME CALME
Title: Il Silenzio del Mattino
Medium: Archival pigment print on cotton rag
Dimensions: 36 x 24
Edition: 1
A meditation on restraint and presence, Il Silenzio del Mattino reflects élève’s quietly powerful ethos. Framed in natural light and washed in tonal warmth, the subject exists in both solitude and motion — a study of being at rest, of time slowed. Inspired by the poetry of the mundane, the work invites stillness, drawing from élève’s commitment to purpose, texture, and form.
Title: Ascent in Stillness
Medium: Organic objects and a cotton rag
Edition: 2
Ascent in Stillness captures the interplay between light, texture, and gravity. Suspended fabric and organic objects form an ephemeral sculpture — both grounded and lifted — evoking elevation without motion. It reflects élève’s belief in purposeful beauty and the quiet transformation found in simplicity.
Title: Still Holding
Medium: Organic branch, leaves, and cotton rag
Edition: 3
A quiet meditation on fragility and perseverance. Two leaves have fallen gently below. Still Holding reflects élève’s devotion to subtle transformation, natural form, and the silent beauty of resilience.
