TYPHAINE LE MONNIER - PLAYTIME

In Typhaine Le Monniers atelier, work never stops. Hands move instinctively while the mind circles around unresolved questionsshaping forms from fragments, discarded jewels, and fleeting ideas. What appears repetitive gradually reveals a deep, evolving investigation into form and meaning. Repetition exposes the resistance of materials: the fragility of stone, the stubbornness of metal, and the limits of turning thought into matter. Le Monniers practice is fueled by the fraught tension between failure and discovery, doubt and intuition. Her work wavers between jewelry and sculpture, intimacy and collectivity, questioning the ways in which we inhabit the world and the role objects play within it. In Playtime, play is no escape; it is a method of survival, a way to sit with discomfort and keep creating despite uncertainty.
