Exposition Eclectic - stéphanie Gendre

She therefore creates her works using these inspiring materials—gathered, stored, and rescued from the trash. After working with concrete and chocolate wrappers, her latest work revolves around feathers and plants.

Always guided by a fully embraced “decorative” sensibility, her work is characterized by ECLECTICISM—an eclectic mix of materials, styles, themes, and techniques, many of which are experimental for this self-taught artist.

Straddling ethics and aesthetics, her work embodies a commitment to waste nothing, speaks to a desire to extend the life of objects, conveys the difficulty of choosing, and expresses a longing to elevate the ordinary.

Each creation is unique, conveying little snippets of history and fragments of life.

A native of the Charente region, Stéphanie returned to her homeland in 2024 after a career as a tour guide and a second career in interior design. It was a return to her roots.

She has set up her artist’s studio in Chalais, at 8 rue de Barbezieux, where she will be delighted to welcome you.
