Marquetry
of straw
In
all its states!
How was Muduna born?
Originally from Nouvelle-Aquitaine, I have always felt drawn to art in all its forms. I discovered watercolor in the Netherlands, then acrylic and clay sculpture once back in France.
Living in Paris, I noticed the emergence of straw marquetry works, integrated by designers into the design of high-end boutiques, then into furniture, and finally into decorative elements.
I decided to give it a try. I immediately appreciated the feel of the straw as well as the discipline and rigorous concentration that marquetry requires. I enjoyed pre-drawing the compositions and then seeing them gradually come to life as the straw was placed on them.
"I find the same pleasure in it as I do with the music of Johann Sebastian Bach!"
Wanting to progress, I then focused on receiving quality training, feeling that this practice could have a powerful future in my life. I thus followed a training at L'Ecole Boulle in Paris, which constituted the decisive starting point of my practice under the artist name "Muduna".
