A visit chez Christian Astuguevieille

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Let me take you on a magical trip to the studio of Christian Astuguevieille. If you are a Shaded Viewer by now you must have seen the beautiful golden chair that I discovered of Christian’s when I was visiting Persuade in Bilbao last year. You also probably know that my favourite scent is Avignon by Comme des Garcons Parfums. Long before I met Christian he had already touched my universe and left a lasting impression.

One thing that you need to know about Christian is that he has a very rich imagination. Creatures exist in his mind that you could never have imagined and yet you easily believe in them. Take the white prehistoric meets manga character reflected in the mirrored door.

The animal head is an element from the chair below. When was the last time that you saw a bench with so much personality?
