The shape, the feel and the weight of these glass objects aim to awaken the Homo Ludens (Johan Huizinga, 1938), and invite to compose imaginary landscapes.
The difficulty to find a balance between the pieces make the players enter in a game that renew each time itself. Those interventions are meditative actions. By its principle Emissaire offers a break in the flowing with technologies and connectivity of our everyday lives. The shapes are made with stemmed glass mould archived at the CIAV-Meisenthal, France. This simplicity allows to invest in the craftsmen’s savoir-faire. They are the ones that give every piece a touch of soul.
