Discover the work of Sabine Cibert
Sabine Cibert assembles textile fragments to create textured, relief-style pieces ranging from 4 to 9 square meters. She works at a deliberate pace, almost exclusively by hand.
Trained in traditional antique quilt techniques, Sabine Cibert assembles textile fragments to create textured, relief-like pieces ranging from 4 to 9 square meters. The assembly techniques inherited from this tradition enable her to achieve the technical feat of working on a large scale. She works at a deliberate, unhurried pace. Drawing on textile collections amassed over decades, she employs geometric arrangements to explore color and the vibrational qualities of the weaves.
His work can be described as a sensitive abstraction poised between patience and momentum; his artistic approach draws inspiration from three sources:
Architecture
Its geometric foundations lend it sculptural power and immense freedom to explore shifts in scale and the interplay between color and material.
Landscape
Her work environment, situated between the Alps and Lyon, nourishes her with both the forces of nature and the geometry of the city and its networks.
Artists
The research initiated at the Bauhaus school plays a pivotal role in the origins of his approach.
