TAÏNE GRASsculptor

A sculptor nurtured by the eclectism of the School of Decorative Arts in Paris, Taïne’s inspiration lies in anecdotes drawn from her everyday life.Her work is a scenography of emotions, sentiments, a fixing of memories, an illustration of ordinary life.In parallel with a continuing personal quest, Taïne collaborates in the equiping of public and private spaces.Her objective: to illustrate through creativity and humour the function of the sites, to facilitate their appropriation by the people who frequent them, while maintaining a great respect for the architecture.The realisation must participate in the everyday life around and not remain lifeless and unchanging.
