CAMY SCULPTURE BANNIERE
LETTER N°21 - March 2020

KIMONOS at the VICTORIA & ALBERT Museum


Hello everyone,

While waiting to go outside again, to walk around and see exhibitions, a quick nod to my London escapade !
The Victoria & Albert Museum is currently showing ( temporarily closed ) a magnificent exhibition on a theme that is central to my work : Kimonos.
I am presently preparing a new kimono, which will join the two previous ones made of steel and bronze, a kimono that looks like an autumn kimono...
This exhibition is just on time!

THE KIMONO / AN ICONIC GARMENT

KImono and London
This garment, which has become iconic, crossed the Japanese borders a long time ago and is still leaving its magnificent imprint in all the arts, from cinema to fashion including the plastic arts.

LOST IN KIMONOS

...To my greatest pleasure !

London really has a lot of appeal, so I'm thinking about an exhibition one day...

THE BIRTH OF MY KIMONO


A large part of the beginning of this year was devoted to research on a new kimono I have in mind and whose plates I want to engrave.
After testing brass, I finally opted for bronze plates that I will engrave by etching, choosing a honey patina, with the colours of autumn ...

Here are the first tests:
camy sculpture bronze gravé
camy sculpture plaques test 1
To be continued, of course,
There's still a lot of work to be done!



Take care and stay at home :-)
