AI-Crafts - Generative prototype

Since 1740, the Manufacture de Sèvres has affirmed its heritage and experimental vocation. A high-invoice creative laboratory, she is an important player in the art scene, design and decorative arts. It draws its strength from the excellence of its artisans and pasta, colours and enamels: unique know-how at the service of guest artists.

AI-Crafts - Generative prototype is an interactive installation that encourages visitors to mold a raw volume, which is promptly recorded by a camera.

Generative artificial intelligence, trained on the Ruhlmann vase collection from the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres, subsequently offers formal interpretations that align with this heritage.

The prototype consequently investigates innovative creative pathways, wherein AI depends on exceptional expertise to formulate credible hypotheses and rejuvenate forms.  

In-Flexions, a duo formed by François Brument and Sonia Laugier, creates interactive devices and parametric objects. A pioneer of digital design in France, their works are featured at FNAC, Centre Pompidou, SFMoMA and MAD. In 2015, they founded Les Arts Codés and conducted their "Digital Crafts" research, hybridizing design, crafts and technology.
