" ART TO WEAR" Ceramic and thread pieces emerge from the same lineage as her filiform sculptures, delicate yet assertive forms that trace the movement of the body in space. 

Each work is handmade, shaped slowly through gestures that echo touch, weaving, and the intimate scale of craft.

The ceramic elements act as anchors, small bodies of earth that hold memory and weight. From them extend threads — knotted, braided, or left loose — forming lines that behave like drawings in three dimensions. No two pieces are alike; each one carries its own rhythm, tension, and presence, as if it were a fragment of a larger, living organism.

Conceived as wearable objects or as pieces to be placed on the wall, these works inhabit the threshold between sculpture and adornment. They suggest the possibility of decorating the body, tracing its contours, or marking the architecture around it with gestures of intimacy and care. The thread becomes a line that moves outward from the artist’s filiform sculptures — a line that connects body, space, and material in a continuous act of relation.
A selection of these artwear pieces can be found at Stratégies Obliques, an independent art space in Carouge, Geneva, where they continue to unfold their relational potential. In this context, they function not only as artworks but as situated gestures — objects that resonate with the space’s commitment to experimentation, material sensitivity, and the politics of everyday forms.

Rather than functioning as accessories, these pieces operate as extensions of the body — small territories where fragility and structure coexist, inviting viewers to imagine how objects can hold stories, movements, and the subtle rituals of everyday life.
