Creations and innovations
The straw, natural matter reflects light in changing tones. Visual effects that industrial techniques are not capable of reproducing. A straw marquetry worked in volume multiply its optical effects and moiré colors, while playing more on the straw senses, the reliefs are born in the heart of the motifs. And it is in this spirit that Valerie develops a whole work around the embossing and the movement thus opening a new look at the possibilities of use of straw and of course, on the material itself !
