Encapsulation

Time for introspection. Artist Christine Tatilon’s work has led her to consider creating objects that serve as both receptacles of hidden memories and witnesses to our times. By questioning collective legacy and the traces we leave behind, Tatilon has pursued her experimental research on transformation and quantity reduction of household waste, creating purposeful final pieces at the crossroads of art and design.

Made with the remains of her days, each object encapsulates at their core not only recyclable, non-recyclable and organic materials but also a piece of intimacy. A meaningful artifact of life, bearing a personal story, is nested in each creation designed to be released and shared in new spaces, new homes through time. Tatilon’s designs, like time capsules, encapsulate a secret trace of a moment, an emotion, or a mood, while incorporating fragments that reflect the essence of the twenty-first century.
