MARIE-VICTOIRE WINCKLER 

The Totem collection offers lamps, wall lights, vases, lighted sculptures, candles and fruit bowls. The pieces use glass as a textile dressing the objects, and ceramics and glass globes like ornamental accessories.

Those ornements can be interchanged, making each piece absolutely unique, depending on the chosen composition. This singularity is reinforced by the pattern formed by the glass blowers’ breath, that differs with each object.

 

The particularity of this glass finds its place in ambiguity, between fabric and marble, between soft and rigid, equally reminiscent of a stormy sky and a pool bathed in light. Depending on the light of the day, the material takes on different lives, oscillating between translucent and opaque.
