Artist Statement
Fans are available in all forms, according to geographical area, cultures and ancestral traditions: round, square, rectangular, semi-circular. Always with the aim of refracting, sanitizing the air, stirring up embers, chasing miasms or ... flies! From the most rustic to the most sophisticated, it is also a costume accessory in its ostentation or parade. In the eighteenth century, in France, in aristocratic circles, he was even given the power of erotic persuasion, with his language imposed on figures for initiates.
