l'Exposition

EJS CARLA HD 21(1)

La dimension empirique, pédagogique et participative du travail de la créatrice est abordée à l’occasion d’une série d'ateliers, de conférences et d’événements. Cette programmation culturelle contribue à valoriser les métiers de la main, favorise leur transmission et susciter des vocations auprès du grand public, scolaires, étudiants, familles et amoureux d’artisanat.

À l'invitation de la Galerie et de la créatrice, trois artisans mexicains qui collaborent avec Carla Fernández, originaires de différents états du Mexique, voyageront jusqu’à Paris/Aubervilliers pour animer des ateliers sur des techniques traditionnelles millénaires. Le public pourra s’initier à la peinture de masques avec Felipe Horta, à la broderie et à la découpe de papel amate avec Arisbeth González et au maque (peinture sur calebasse) avec Obdulia Almazán.

Artiste

Founder of the eponymous brand, Carla Fernández with her partner Christina Rangel works at the forefront of ethical fashion, documenting and preserving the rich textile heritage of Mexico's indigenous communities. Her creations are made in collaboration with over 180 weavers, embroiderers, and carvers from across fifteen states of Mexico who use traditional techniques and processes to create contemporary fashion.

Fruitful collaborations between the designer, her partner craftsmen in Mexico, and four residents Maisons of le19M—Goossens, Massaro, Maison Michel, and ERES—bring together traditional and contemporary savoir-faire and techniques and the experience of an object with creative abstraction.
