Céline Felga studio
Le Rêve en Boîte
Céline Felga Decorated a limited series of thirty bare caskets with three scenes representing the Wouters & Hendrix world. Known for applying classical painting techniques in contemporary settings, Felga handcrafted three different universes with paint and paper collage, drawing on iconic Wouters & Hendrix symbols and fragments of poetry, intuitively assembled by cutting up existing poems and song texts in cadavre exquis style.
Just like Wouters & Hendrix love blending time-honoured techniques with innovative solutions in their jewellery designs, Felga developed her own method of layering paint, paper, gold leaf and lacquer to bring her vision for the boxes to life.
The artist is no stranger to the jewellery house, she was one of the craftsmen working on the meter-long curtain in Wouters & Hendrix’ ‘Wunderkammer’ exhibition at Diamond Museum DIVA and regularly adorns shop windows with her signature paintings.
