Rencontre by Patrick Jouin
Patrick Jouin reinvents the Marotte sculpted panels and explores all the possibilities the machine has to offer. His work goes well beyond focusing on matter and the ways of giving it shape. Indeed, Patrick Jouin is hard at work modeling light as a material in its own right.
