ISBN: 9788822922946
This book is dedicated to the work of Ferréol Babin, as part of a series of monographs on the thought and work of young contemporary designers.
Ferréol Babin operates in an area of design that expands in a pervasive way on a wide front of expression, in constant dialogue with applied arts, visual arts and crafts. His creative explorations are exercises in negotiation between the will to govern the transformation of the material, and the need to allow the material itself to suggest the directions of its own modification. Consciously functional and emotionally poetic, his projects often lend themselves to an ambivalent interpretation that puts them into an original typological category, between the archaic artefact and the contemporary product.
Illustrated by a rich photographic series, the book presents the results of Babin’s creative thought through a selection of projects, interviews and critical texts.
