Born with a designer’s eye and an unquenchable desire to collect beautiful things, I have always surrounded myself with vintage objects, toys and antiques. And as I grew up, and as I visited more and more flea markets around the world, I gradually discovered that I had a special gift. That of giving obsolete objects and materials a second life, using art to reduce our collective impact on the planet while also honouring and valuing things that run the risk of being forgotten or disappearing.
