Send us your event‘Ecaille’ was conceived as part of a spatial project for the Independent Paper Show 2017 in Switzerland, whose aim was to showcase craftsmen, printers and other paper industry professionals.
Once assembled, the ‘Ecailles’ – scales, or tiles - are background units in a wide and diversified chromatic palette. Every ‘Ecaille’ is user-friendly, thanks to notches, thus enhancing its value. In isolation, each tile seems fragile and has little narrative meaning. Clipped together, like a jigsaw or random puzzle, the tiles seem to strengthen each other and offer a spectacular parable of paper as a ‘fragile support for the essential’, in the words of writer-researcher Pierre-Marc de Biasi.
