Pour la petite histoire / A little background
"I've always loved card games: poker, tarot, French-style cards and so on. The visuals, the decks as a whole, the origins, are always very beautiful, with beautiful presentations, elegant designs and very colourful. I developed enough of an attraction to launch into this King / Queen of Hearts duo made from an old pack of cards found at a second-hand shop. The chance encounter with this collector allowed me to mature my project, or perhaps to give it shape. Respecting the colour codes, the shape of the clothes and the choice of materials was a real job for me and my colleagues. "
