Disquiet Luxurians is a project by Emilie
F.Grenier that seeks for alternative ways for
unique and luxurious objects, how they are
created and consumed. Through her work she
introduces an unfamiliar definition of what
luxury stands for nowadays by changing the
prominence on origin, expertise and value.
Feldspar, one of the worlds most widespread
minerals, which covers 60% of Earth`s crust,
is the material which Emilie put her focus on.
She transforms feldspar, this otherwise meaningless rock, into post-luxurian artifact in a
series of eye-catching objects, challenging the
inviolable concept of rarity.
In times of defining yourself by what goal we
reach with surrounding materials it is time to
let Disquiet Luxurians be those of more essential value.
A sublime, sensational series of art pieces.
