DESIGNER

Etienne Marc

Etienne Marc is a french designer/craftsman born in Amiens (1995). He studied product design in Reims and Contextual Design in the Design Academy of Eindhoven where he started to develop a hands-on practice and a deep interest in materials and their symbolic meanings. His use of materials borrowed from traditional art mixed with ones that refer to the physical reality of our time play with our expectations and challenge traditional meanings and values.

"It is sometimes difficult to replicate the lighteness and the visual dynamic of nature, a hands-on practice is required to mimicate any natural construction, mistakes even. (...) There is a sens of logic within the organic construction of an object that got to be spontaneous."
