Nicolas Momein uses manufactured or industrial production materials. He thus passes from animal hair to mineral wool, to padded tablecloths, etc, while undertaking a meticulous collection of objects or furniture. He regularly bases his approach on a relationship with the worlds of craft or agriculture and assigns part of the production process to professionals: their materials and knowhow thus come into contact with his own sculptural style.
For the Château-Musée de Tournon, Nicolas Momein presents a body of work reflecting the last three years of his production.
