a MEDITERRANEAN JOURNEY
by FRAN ANIORTE
At Galerie SCENE OUVERTE (Paris), immerse yourself in the magical realism of Fran Aniorte, a Spanish artist and designer whose creative journey traverses the vibrant landscapes of Barcelona and Istanbul. Running from March 28 to May 17, 2025, this exhibition unveils a universe where art, design, and craft seamlessly converge.
Fran Aniorte’s work defies conventional boundaries. His diverse creations—ranging from art objects and immersive installations to innovative homeware designs—invite viewers into a realm where the extraordinary resides within the everyday. In his own words, "The real luxury is the experiences we live: the human contact, the connection with nature, the rediscovery of silence and all that is becoming rare like craftsmanship and authenticity." This ethos permeates every piece, echoing a profound appreciation for genuine, lived moments.
Inspired by the enchantment of a Mediterranean summer night, the collection evokes a poetic atmosphere, transforming nature into an enchanted realm. Each artwork radiates a timeless aura of mystery, beckoning audiences to embark on a sensory journey—a journey where light, shadow, and emotion coalesce into an experience that is both elegant and joyful.
As Aniorte describes, “This collection invites a sensory journey inspired by a poetic vision of The Mediterranean. Timeless, elegant and joyful, a dreamlike universe to uplift the soul.” Here, light and mystery serve as metaphors for the extraordinary hidden within the folds of our everyday lives, crafting an ode to both the seen and unseen, the crafted and the natural.
