Installation and meeting with Laurel Parker and Paul Chamard, 2019 winners of Villa Kujoyama

On the occasion of the 39th European Heritage Days and Paris Design Week 2022, the Museum of Hunting and Nature and Villa Kujoyama*, partners since 2016, invite the public to come and discover the research project that Laurel Parker and Paul Chamard have developed during their residency in Kyoto around Japanese paper, washi, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Astonishing trompe l'oeil, each element of the installation "Inside Outside" -kimono, tatami, packaging etc., is made of washi transformed using traditional techniques. These interpretive objects invite us to question the contemporary use of washi, which has become one of the favorite materials of architects, craftsmen, artists and designers.
