PAIR OF LIGHTED WALL SCULPTURES
The idea of these luminous sculptures came to Christel Sadde following the discovery of a curious instrument called “conformateur”. This instrument consists of small metal rods that slide on a central axis. It remained with her until the design of these luminous sculptures.
In their geometric shapes and use of the same materials – stainless steel, brass and mirrored aluminum – they echo the aerial universe of the artist’s mobiles.
But with the added bonus of light!
ROGER VIVIER
In 2003, Christel Sadde met Inès de la Fressange, then ambassador of the luxurious house ROGER VIVIER. Since then, a very faithful collaboration of the famous shoe brand with the artist has resulted in the creation of more than 35 custom-made mobiles for boutiques around the world.
Hermes – Petit h
In collaboration with the artisans of the Petit h workshop, Christel Sadde has created several series of mobile sculptures on bases between 2010 and 2020 (a selection in images). These are unique pieces created from an exclusive Petit h material cellar, which gathers the unused materials of all HERMES crafts.
Petit h was created in 2010 by Pascale Mussard. It is a laboratory of ideas exchanged between artists and Hermès artisans, ideas that are immediately put into action for creations that are as free as art, playful, dreamlike and unusual.
