With their light and airy shapes, her creations are inspired by the transparency and diaphanous whiteness of washi paper. Her sensitive and poetic approach is resolutely focused on nature. In response to ecological challenges, Céline Wright is developing increasingly responsible production methods, using natural materials and environmentally friendly products. From her childhood years spent in Japan, she has retained a particular foundness for Japanese culture. And it was as a resident of Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto for six months in 2022 that Céline was able to deepen her knowledge of washi and push the potential of this traditional Japanese material : two Shelter-Cocoons over 4 meters wide presented at the Kyocera Museum during the Nuits Blanches (White Nights); Unkaï cocoon made of kozo paper - discovered on this occasion -hung from bamboo and installed outdoors at the Villa Kujoyama for more than six months… Large-scale pieces, land art, experimentation with new papers... Céline Wright's work is resolutely turned towards the land of the rising sun. https://www.celinewright.com/fr/

Samurai Exhibition at the Château des Ducs de Bretagne in Nantes
"Samurai: 1000 Years of Japanese History" at the Château des Ducs de Bretagne, Nantes. At the entrance of the exhibition, the silhouette of a Samurai warrior is silhouetted against a red paper sun, with a diameter of 2.20 m, mass-dyed and illuminated by LED strips inside the lens.In another space, a giant sheet of paper, 10 m by 6 m, entirely created on-site, is placed on a illuminated macrolon table. The undulating and light relief is created by sculpted waves covered with several thousand strips of washi paper. The sea of clouds softly illuminates the Samurai armors that seem to float in this celestial drapery.

For this prestigious project, Marie Déroudhile chose the refinement of the Diva light fixture and the voluptuousness of the Cirrus, which float like luminous whales in front of Hong Kong Bay.
