Launched by two art fans, MétamorFoses
recuperates noble materials that are broken,
abandoned or flawed and therefore cannot be used
by the best French artisans, mainly Living Heritage
companies. They then pass them on to artists
and designers so they can create unique lifestyle
objects in collaboration with craftsmen. It’s a very
original idea. In the image of upcycling clothes,
with this project the dozen or so artist creations
bring art upcycling to life. Upcycling still hasn’t
shared all its possibilities...and its installation in a
growing number of sectors will only help reinforce
the idea that imperfections always generate
uniqueness and emotion. A message with great
humanist significance.
