The most famous of the carrés has known a lot of metamor phoses since its creation in 1956 by Hugo Grygkar. “En finesse”, this time, like a negative, Brides de Gala detaches itself on a slender framework, traced by a sure hand, freely and delicately, guided by the spirit of the moment. Installed at her table and armed with fine pens, the designer traces her world of the instant, line by line: a complex interweaving of scrolls, plant life, expressive luxuriance. Invaded by these tenuous, multiplying lines, space takes on life, modelling itself in volumes, symbolising the vital proliferation of all things. Countless veins, minuscule capillaries in which circulate sap, sense and energy itself.
