Thomas Antonietti 1979 born in Vannes, France 2006 Design master graduated in Camondo Design school, Paris, France 2006 started to work as a freelance in Paris. www.thomasantonietti.com 2007 received the Monbukagakusho scholarship to start a research project in design, in Musashino Art University, Tokyo. Exhibition 2006 Paris, salon maison et objets 2007 Designer's block "handled with care", London Projet Replica Having a interest for the Mnemosyne work of Aby Warburg, I feel that we all have a subconscious memory of shapes from everyday objects, travel, media,... And since sometimes I feel myself, as a designer, surrounded and overwhelmed by objects that try to attract my attention and grab my hands, I started this Replica project. In the Replica's world, I immediately thought of Teddy bears that are replicating the world. In English the funny meaning of the expression "stuffed animal" led me think about Replica in this way: Replica will start to replicate objects stuffing them, making new soft useable stuffed objects. Phase 1 lampe. replicated object: Donburi bowl 2 times. material: Nylon parachute cloth, survival blanket, zipper, stuffing material. |
