Sculpture & Casting
Each creation begins with a unique design, hand-carved from plastiline. This original model is then frozen in a high-precision silicone mold, allowing a final resin print combining finesse and robustness.
Painting & Character
Once the raw part is cleaned, I work on the finishes and painting. It is at this stage that the mask takes on its character: I mix Japanese aesthetic codes with my personal artistic approach to create a vibrant and unique piece.
Finishing & Rope
The mask would not be complete without its textile ornamentation. I do the traditional knotting myself, precision work where the rope is meticulously combed, braided and painted. These rope finishes bring the final balance and authenticity specific to the Atelier's creations.
