Through the NUAGE collection, Cathy Camille explores two distinct yet interconnected themes: the juxtaposition of the permanent and the impermanent, and the contrast between the old and the new.

Wood, with its timeless strength, carries the stories of history - ancient trees living for millennia, their fibers etched with the passage of time. Solid, enduring, and capable of being restored and passed down through generations, wood represents permanence. In contrast, clouds are fleeting and ephemeral - each one unique, visible only for a moment before dissolving into the sky, never to be seen again. They embody impermanence.

Just as clouds are in a perpetual state of transformation, so too can the old be made new again. In celebration of renewal, this collection restores the elegance of antique wood, once forgotten as its radiance faded with time. With each brushstroke breathing new life into timeworn wood, these pieces are reimagined with thoughtful care and artistry.

As Cathy evolves her practice, she has also begun incorporating frames crafted from other materials, such as metal, selected for their craftsmanship and unique character. These frames, chosen with the same reverence for history and quality, open new pathways within NUAGE's ongoing exchange between tradition and transformation.

NUAGE weaves together the lasting and the fleeting - two forces that shape our experiences in this world. It is within this collection where the old is reimagined, and the ephemeral leaves a lasting impression.
