SET DESIGN    MATHILDE MATON
ABOUT


In my practice, I am drawn to forgotten techniques and the silent stories within everyday objects, seeking to redefine their value and meaning. I focus on objects that possess an essence, unveiling layers of history, heritage, and communal memories.

I approach each project with an intent to create strong aesthetic choices, embracing a craftsmanship that bridges the realms of fiction and reality. My work explores the intimate connections we hold with the past and with each other, merging know-how with contemporary reinterpretations. 

My goal is to specialize deeply, developing a distinct craft that invites people to connect, reminisce, and reconsider the everyday. Through this, I aim to be a reference point for those seeking a unique narrative of heritage and communal value.
