AUBRY BROQUARD
At the core of Aubry/Broquard’s practice (Bastien Aubry b. 1974 and Dimitri Broquard b. 1969) is the construction of compelling environments that combine craft and design to create art.
Their work, at once humorous and precarious, is motivated by the poetry of failure and the beauty found in the less-than-perfect. Much of their work features misshapen ceramic objects, such as jugs or pipes, which are placed on perfectly symmetrical displays, offering a clear vision of art in opposition to design, their secondary profession.
