CLAIR OBSCUR

January 15 - 20th, 2025
Galerie Babel, 15 rue Guénégaud Paris 6

On the occasion of Paris Déco Off, Guillaume Garnier and Florent Linker are delighted to present CLAIR-OBSCUR, an exhibition that brings together their recent work with Japanese urushi lacquer and the lost-wax casting technique for glass.

The result of a years-long collaboration with a Kyoto-based workshop specialized in the ancient technique of urushi lacquer, the KAMI collection features a selection of new furniture pieces—including tables, consoles, and cabinets—as well as lighting fixtures. These will be showcased alongside glass lighting pieces from the ITYS collection, crafted using the lost-wax glass casting technique, in a gallery located in the Saint-Germain district.

The installation aims to highlight the interplay of color, material, and reflections inherent in both lacquer and colored glass.
