I always love get­ting emails from Kelly at Lit­tle Paper Planes. She always reminds me of the great things they have at their online store, includ­ing a bi-monthly fea­tured artist. Twice a month, Lit­tle Paper Planes selects an artist to inter­view and sell exclu­sive prints of their work.

For part of August, the artist col­lec­tive Château-Vacant has been fea­tured. Com­prised of three mem­bers, Yan­nick Calvez, Lémuel Mal­i­coutis, and Bap­tiste Alchour­roun, all are orig­i­nally from France and cur­rently reside in Mon­treal, Quebec.

Each mem­ber of the col­lec­tive has their own area of exper­tise, but they all share a sim­i­lar aes­thetic which enables them to cre­ate work that looks cohe­sive yet at the same time main­tains indi­vid­u­al­ity. They pride them­selves on mak­ing things con­cretely, and hav­ing the abil­ity to touch and feel every­thing made. The mem­bers pre­fer not to use the com­puter, which feels abstract and disconnected

You can find more about Château-Vacant in their inter­view with Cort­ney from the LPP gang. You can also buy exclu­sive prints of their work — lim­ited edi­tion AND signed by the artist! I per­son­ally love the prints and the arrange­ment of their shapes.
