After a Carte Blanche in the windows of the Palais Royal, the French Ministry of Culture and Communication honored me with an invitation to participate in the collective exhibition Heroic Women, Modern Mythology. This exhibition, presented in parallel at the Musée de l’Homme in Paris and in the immersive 3D virtual space of Second Life, explores the intersection of art, fashion, and technology.

Trilogy is a diptych sculpture I created in collaboration with my artist collective to pay tribute to the contribution of women in shaping our society.

I teamed up with kinetic sculptor Didier Legros to design a transparent monolithic featuring motorized metal paths that allow translucent marbles to move and bounce in defiance of gravity, inviting the audience to be fascinated by the continuous evolution of women's empowerment through time.

With Marc Gassier, we created a 3d lace dress made of 150 hand-sculpted ants, representing women as a powerful, interconnected megacolony—independent and capable of nurturing life.

In partnership with Olivier Goulet, we enveloped Trilogy’s body in a synthetic skin that bears the intricate scars of women’s unwavering resilience. The fingertips extend to a network of brains, embodying the profound intelligence and boundless creativity inherent in women’s hands.

Crowning the sculpture is an elongated skull head, crafted from 45 layers of green-tinted stratified glass in collaboration with Thomasine Gieseke. The layered structure reveals the intricate brain within, symbolizing women’s clairvoyance and instinct. 

Lastly, with Isabelle Tournaud, we wove Trilogy's feet with multicolored telecommunication cables, grounding her in a future intertwined with AI technology.

Trilogy is a collaborative artwork that sparks dialogue on womanhood and equality, with the long-term goal of broadening the conversation to explore transhumanism—the idea that humanity can evolve beyond its current physical and mental limitations through advancements in science and technology.

The idea of an optimized future—where science and technology elevate our daily lives—first crystallized in Trilogy, the sculpture I presented with my artist collective at the Musée de l’Homme in Paris. This vision found new urgency in menswear when Axelle de Buffévent introduced me to Franck Malègue, founder of éclectic, a Parisian experimental brand revalorizing traditional Italian tailoring through advanced textile innovation.

By integrating aerospace, military, and extreme sports materials, éclectic reframed artisanal tradition through the lens of material science and garment engineering. Rooted in timeless minimalism, the brand distilled fashion to its core principles: ergonomics, architecture, performance, and function.

From tuxedo jackets crafted in thermoregulating Outlast^® (originally developed by NASA), to military-grade Cordura^® blazers and ultra-light, tear-proof travel bags built from Airnet^® 3D mesh (initially developed by Nike), éclectic does not merely style garments—it engineers them.

For the opening of éclectic’s flagship store at 8 rue Charlot, I was invited to propose an artistic collaboration.

In response, I gave carte blanche to sculptor Isabelle Tournoud to weave the circulatory system of the artisan’s hand using fiber-optic cables as veins— an invisible bloodstream of craftsmanship data pulsing towards the future at the speed of light. The technique echoed Isabelle's earlier contribution to Trilogy, converging (not replacing) the analog knowledge of the master artisan’s hand with the potentiality of high-tech.

This dream conjures a near future where luxury embraces science-led textile innovation, embedded intelligence, and sustainable biotech.

Thus, Luxury becomes an experimental interface—  responsive to the evolving needs of tomorrow—rooted in the latest advances in material research: shape-shifting fibers, microbial dyeing, biodegradable substrates, energy harvesting fabrics, temperature regulating materials, intelligent knitted sensors, living responsive textiles, wellness-integrated garments, data storing weaves, etc.

A radical new aesthetic language emerges— functional, adaptive, and alive. A boundry pushing dialogue between innovation, craftsmanship, and design: intimate, current, and continually in flux.
