Restless Mirabilia / A Nomadic Wunderkammer




This is a portable cabinet of wonders, a monument to our inexhaustible curiosity about the world and our need to explore it by gathering objects which are precious, irregular and emblematic. Every life is an encyclopedia, dominated by an endless chaotic order.
By first considering historical precedents, we imagine a traveling wunderkammer, more like an atlas than a museum, a piece of luggage both useless and essential, constantly changing. This lightweight collection seeks to capture a whole which is potential,  conceptual, multiple and decorative all at once.
