“The relationship to the scale translated in my work throught the small displacements gives a certain accent to the objects. That attention is not the result of some mathematics, but represents the will to shift norms and habits. Aside from canons, my relationship to proportions is linked to the human scale. Beyond this scale, which is dependent on architecture and corresponds to spaces in which we can enter, there is the scale that relates to what one can embrace: furniture, objects. Finally, there is the dimension of what one holds in the hand. The more we go towards the small dimension orintimacy, the more we summon up touching things further away from the look”.(F.Bauchet)
François Bauchet, who studied sculpture and ceramics, confronts forms that were born from sculpture in a very tenuous functional dimension. All his furniture stand on the frontier between function and work of art and raise the question of the presence of things in a world dedicated to the image.
