A tribute to imperfection

Like many, we have sometimes been attracted by an object, and yes, after looking at it, observing it, sometimes even admiring it, we were too afraid of its imperfect condition and decided to abandon it to its tragic fate…

But one day, after meeting the right people, repairers at heart, we decided to accompany these pieces and give them a new start in life.

There’s something so satisfying about seeing an object cover itself in a new layer of colour, seeing a missing part reappear, seeing a hidden motif resurface under a layer of dust, restoring the glory to an object designed and made, sometimes, in another century and by expert hands from another world.

“Art is restoration: the idea is to repair the damages that are inflicted in life, to make something that is fragmented – which is what fear and anxiety do to a person – into something whole.”  

Louise Bourgeois
