« Crafting is a collaborative experience between the maker and the material. »

Although she spent her childhood in her father's glass painting workshop, Cécile Delanoë began her career as a theater costume designer. It was later in her life that she returned to the profession that had been part of her life from the beginning. His work is divided between restorations and original creations, which gives him the opportunity to explore new techniques and the different reactions of glass.

« Aside from my hands, the machine I use the most is the melting furnace. I like to experiment, test, understand how different types of glass react to different temperatures. »

Cécile's sources of inspiration are numerous, from elements linked to water such as oceans and seas, to human beings in their physicality and emotions.

Glass is an element with which we must collaborate. It has its own characteristics and flaws and we must take them into account to get what we want. Cécile Delanoë sees craftsmanship as a symbiosis between the material and the person.
