Unique and timeless gifts

For collectors and amateurs, more and more independent artists offer prints, creations, and original works. It is an atypical and eco-responsible alternative to mass-produced paintings found in large decoration stores, but which can also be adapted to all budgets! They are a multitude on social networks, and especially on Instagram. To give you some leads, here is a small selection: Shannon (@brdshart on Instagram) is a multidisciplinary artist. His cyanotypes, an alternative photography technique, exude a fascinating, ghostly energy, a little haunted and nostalgic: an affordable gift (from 15€) that will attract attention and delight photo lovers! Manon Facca (@manonfacca on Instagram) has a recognizable style among thousands. The unique, saturated colors and his sense of detail create a universe full of layers, sometimes hallucinatory, often bewitching, where the gaze always sinks and is lost. The prices of his prints, available on smooth or textured paper in different formats, start at 5€. Léna Nash (@lenanash on Instagram) recently set up a Christmas Box, containing original illustrations, a unique mosaic, ceramic objects, jewelry… The whole is borrowed from a particular poetry, soft and sunny, both casual and attentive, characteristic of his work. You will find his shop here. She is also part of the Medusae Collective , which brings together various women and non-binary illustrators. Art, art, for everyone and for all budgets! We hope you enjoyed our gift ideas, do not hesitate to give us your opinions in comment or on our Instagram page! Agathe Leroy, Maëva Rak and Barbara Silvera-Sonigo
