Biography | Live and work between Singapore and Paris. AuchKatzStudio is a French design studio established in 2017 and composed of the visual artist Elsa Belbacha-Lardy and the space and product designer Thomas Thibout. Based on their individual principles, they aim to combine art and design in a form inspired by minerals. In a world subject to globalization, their empirical work fights against large scale serial design. They work to sublimate the roughness and instability of their materials so as to achieve an experimental design where materials dominate and allude to both solid and fragile matter. Their designer approach is that of a sculptor. They let themselves be guided by the spontaneity of their gestures, and the design they have in mind is not the final product, but rather its starting point. Their work process is based on the colors of material and its capacity to capture the movement of light and the passing of time. They exhibited for SuperGroup in New York in 2019 with the Superhouse gallery. In September 2021, they presented Hypermonde, their first solo exhibition at the Art center Louis Jardin in Le Mesnil/Oger (FR) and their second solo exhibition at the KOMMET art center in Lyon in 2024. AuchKatzStudio was featured in Materialité curated by Stephen Markos for Adorno's Factory show at Paris Design Week, at the Salon Premiere Classe at the Jardin des Tuilerie in Paris for the Sunny Corner exhibition organized by Harold Mollet in September 2022, at the Lake Como Design Festival 2022 and Milan Design Week 2023 organized by Artefacto for Movimento Club. They will participate at the 3 Days of Design of Copenhague in 2025 with ADORNO. |
