Mathias OUVRARD, born 1990 Les Grands Cercles Jaunes, Quimper - 2020 Yellow silk and viscose velvet, hand-cut with scissors and die-cut, fused to yellow silk organza. One-of-a-kind piece, signed on the thread lower right. 120 x 80 cm This design is inspired by the concentric circle motifs so prevalent in Bigouden embroidery in the early 20th century. In this yellow, a favorite color of Bigouden embroidery, a play of sixteen orientations reveals velvet's ability to absorb and reflect light, turning a monochrome material into a surface full of golden nuances. --- Mathias OUVRARD, born 1990 Born in Quimper, Mathias Ouvrard discovered Brittany's traditional textile skills at a very early age, and the quality of the techniques and decorations created by embroidery craftsmen. During his post-graduate studies in embroidery and applied arts in Paris, he immersed himself in the ancient skills of his native region, earning a Diplôme des Métiers d'Art. The aesthetics, techniques and materials used in traditional ves tiaire, which have always fascinated him, are now inseparable from his creative process. Velvet, an omnipresent material in traditional garments, is a recurring theme in the work he has developed. Textile mosaics" composed of small pieces of velvet fused to silk organza. Each piece is hand-cut in its own direction, and each reflects or absorbs light according to its orientation, creating a changing surface as the viewer moves in front of it. Its weave enables it to both absorb and reflect light. It is this effect that he uses to give a monochrome velvet 16 shades, with 16 orientations shifted by 22.5 degrees, prepared in advance on computer. His inspirations for the motif lie between the "glazig" and "bigouden" regions, namely Quimper and Pont l'abbé. Lastly, her work echoes the Seiz Breur's desire to renew Breton arts and enhance Breton heritage.
