The Book, an Object of Art

For me, the book is an object that should attract us, that we want to touch, feel, leaf through, read, observe, admire and... see again, take up again and reread. There is at the same time a carnal, emotional, but also intellectual relationship, since it is also through his presence and the words that he transmits to us that we escape, that we learn and that we 'we dream.

Behind each book, there are stories of people, atypical journeys, secrets, from the imaginary to the real, the beautiful, the ugly, the serious and the funny. An activity that allows me to immerse myself in a universe, in silence, and where I sink into a pleasant hubbub, my innermost being. I find myself with myself, and this object in my hands is like a window open to infinite possibilities.

There is also the story of those who designed and manufactured it, physically, from the paper to the binding, including the finishing touches... This aspect of my job pleases me enormously, I have the impression of doing haute couture, to fashion a unique, rare object, from its conception to its creation. And then the time comes to duplicate it, to distribute it... and there, it starts its life, no longer belongs to me...

It is then yours, and you choose it among many others. This is already a great satisfaction for me!

 It's all this that makes me love books and make them. Each project is for me a real adventure in which I invest myself fully and which takes me "by the guts" for several months.

 My wish is to make beautiful books, objects that you will want to keep, offer, pass on as you wish! I hope you have a good time with each of the art objects we make.
