Opening: 24.09 at 6pm

L’Atelier la Chapelle highlights the work of Irina Jane (@irina.jane.studio), a resident artist whose practice is woven at the crossroads of ceramics, design, and installation art. Starting from a simple element — the chain — Irina Jane develops a singular formal vocabulary. Shaped one by one, the ceramic links are declined into a multiplicity of scales and uses: jewelry, curtains, swings, and suspended installations — so many forms where the material seems to defy its own limits. In her work, chains embody duality: strength and fragility, order and collapse, weight and lightness, functional object and sculpture. Oscillating between what restrains and what releases, between attachment and rupture, they introduce a real movement, a living tremor, a tension. For Irina Jane, ceramics — an irreversible material that cracks, shrinks, resists, or yields — becomes a medium of connection.

The exhibition also brings together Alexia de Ville (GOYET), for her contemporary tapestry work, and Warre Everaert (Atelier WE).

The studio also takes part in the open-door days on September 25 and 26.
