Info
Burgundy is defined by its bocage landscape: a geometric mosaic of fields bordered by hedges and trees that represents the ancestral connection between man and the land. This vegetal pattern, cultivated year after year, embodies the Burgundian "savoir-vivre," a philosophy that celebrates the present moment, conscious enjoyment, and the value of craftsmanship.In a world of accelerated routines, L'instant présent proposes to recover the unhurried ritual of bathing as an act of personal reconnection. The project translates the geometry of the bocage into a large stained-glass window that becomes a poetic device: light traverses its pattern, projecting onto the steam and creating an enveloping atmosphere where interior and exterior dialogue.Artisanal finishes with irregular textures reclaim craftsmanship as an act of presence. The neutral envelope sustains the atmosphere, allowing the stained-glass window to take center stage; light transforms the bathing ritual into a silent homage. The Burgundian geometry marks time with subtlety, integrating into a composition that celebrates heritage and the present moment.
