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.
