Kirigamist
Maïe Alexandre explores the delicacy and beauty of nature through the unique art of paper-cutting, also known as Kirigami.
Her ‘Délicate Nature’ series, launched in 2022, is a poignant reflection on the erosion of life on Earth. Each work, the fruit of meticulous observation of detail and texture, is the result of meticulous work and deep attention. The artist’s technique, which goes beyond simple paper-cutting to create lacy sculptures, invites the viewer to contemplate the fragile beauty that surrounds us. Her work, a celebration of life and nature, encourages us to become more aware and to preserve our planet.
For her first exhibition at the Atelier Galerie l’Alcôve, the artist has decided to show you her various stages of creation. Her studio will be set up in the gallery, where you can watch her work on her new lace and chat with her.
