B 612?

the asteroid where the Little Prince from Saint Exupéry's story lives…

The paths of creation are many and winding, and full of wonderful surprises!

Let me tell you: during a walk by the sea, a very strange little pebble was lying on the sand among millions of other little pebbles…

C’est CE caillou que j’ai vu parmi ses millions de semblables et que j’ai choisi d’emporter. Pourquoi ?

How can I put it… there was a very vast world within him and I immediately thought of a planet in miniature.

And little by little, the Little Prince made his appearance!

To convey this emotion, I needed to transform the scale of this pebble and bring it to a large scale to make it an asteroid.

Thanks to tapestry, I was able to use all the resources of weaving to express, through different combinations, the texture and relief of my pebble.

It's a kind of "augmented" reality.«

One tapestry can hide another…

On the reverse side of each tapestry, I had the last lines of The Little Prince by Saint Exupéry woven:

“Then, if a little man appears who laughs, who has golden hair and who refuses to answer questions, you will know who he is.

So please be kind!

If this should happen, please comfort me. Send me word that he has come back. »
