BRIGITTE RAOULT, Belgium
Breathless
The Breathless necklace is part of the Black Ideas collection.
Jewellery is the ultimate medium of expression, conveying inner emotions—an experience so difficult to articulate with words.
In her artistic exploration for Black Ideas, it quickly became clear that she had to delve into raw, organic, and animal materials: viscera, like the sensation in your gut when something feels wrong; ashes; porcelain for its fragility; and roughly worked, oxidized metal.
A world that is both raw and melancholic. Each piece is a theatrical de(con)struction, a staging full of metaphors, a narrative.
Material
brown died intestine, ash pigment, thread, copper 22x25x5 cm
At the heart of Brigitte’s artistic philosophy is a deep commitment to challenging societal norms while advocating for inclusivity, environmental preservation, and the dignity of those navigating mental health challenges. Each of her creations, born from organic inspiration, breathes life into a world steeped in the delicate balance of nature.
Fuelled by an unrelenting passion for innovation, Brigitte takes great satisfaction in transforming discarded materials, giving new life to what was once forgotten.
With an unwavering dedication to her craft, she now focuses exclusively on contemporary jewelry, ceramic and sculpture, created in her Brussels atelier.
