Her calling was to dress the soul by means of the body, and so began her designing career as a textile stylist. She worked for several designer houses and for more commercial French labels, until the day fate intervened, creating links between her imagination and her know-how. After an artist’s ring was stolen from her mother, Isabelle wanted to replace the missing jewel. She met a jeweller who, faced with the precision of her demand, advised her to create it herself. The reconstruction, already. The pieces were falling into place, by osmosis. In the early 2000s, she designed the famous Band- Aid ring, symbolic pieces of her new career. Her artwork today includes rings, bracelets, earrings, chains, necklaces, pendants… evoking a memory, a presence, a sense of protection, forming a second skin. ABOUT THE PIECE The spirit of Christmas is really what made me want to create this piece. To me, its spirit is synonym of joy, love, sharing, laughing and celebrating good times… But what else is there in life? The question I asked myself is the following: What would you do every morning if you were to live in a place where the spirit of Christmas is omnipresent at all times and in all circumstances? The key is to live like if “today is the first day of the rest of your life”, just like in the wonderful song written by Etienne Daho (Aujourd’hui est le premier jour du reste de ta vie)… S’aimer et ainsi, pouvoir s’ouvrir à l’autre, Vivre aujourd’hui, le moment présent, Faire de sa vie un rêve et d’un rêve, une réalité. Never give up on the magic of Christmas, and never give up your dreams! Frédéric Berthet describes it in his “journal de trêve”: “Que faire de ma vie ? se demandait-il ? Et il répondait: y multiplier les moments où la question ne se pose pas.” DIMENSIONS 50 cm x 40 cm x 32 cm ISABELLE LENFANT 11 02 WIM BRUYNOOGHE ABOUT THE ARTIST Wim Bruynooghe is a Belgian designer, who graduated from the Antwerp Fashion Department. He launched his eponymous label in 2013 and opened his first Antwerp guerilla store shortly after. In 2016, Wim Bruynooghe was selected as one of the most promising young entrepreneurs of Europe by Forbes magazine. He has also been named artistic director of UCWHY, a new brand founded by Anne Chapelle, CEO of the Belgian fashion company BVBA 32. ABOUT THE PIECE “Looking through a child’s eyes may just be the most honest way to look at our tumultuous world.” While designing my piece, I thought of the way I would draw these elaborately decorated Christmas trees as a child. Our Christmas tree, which is actually a giant beanbag, captures this beautifully. At the same time, it quotes the elements that have been at the heart of the Wim Bruynooghe DNA since the very start: the diagonal decoupes that reference the ever-changing horizon of the North Sea, the play between structure and drape, the statement duchesse fabric in a sultry palette of red and black. DIMENSIONS 80 cm x 80 cm x 120 cm WIM BRUYNOOGHE 13 03 GUY LECLEF Papier ‘Brillant’ ABOUT THE ARTIST In his work, Guy Leclef always aims to find the essence, purity and simplicity of things. His signature eye for detail turns his art with paper into an experience.
