L'anecdote de 1.618

We were lucky enough to witness the making of the washi paper lights in Céline Wright's workshop in Montreuil. It was a captivating experience, demonstrating that such a delicate luminary requires very precise manipulations. Molded and structured by hand, with a brush as the only tool, the shell can be composed of more than 2000 strips of paper patiently glued to a shape!

Love is the source of light that gives life its best light
