Thai jewellery designer Patcharavipa Bodiratnangkura\u2019s new Lignes d’Ete collection is inspired by unorthodox French painters Fernand L\u00e9ger and Jean Debuffet.<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Bangkok-based jewellery designer Patcharavipa Bodiratnangkura\u2019s new Lignes d’Ete collection references the works of painters Fernand L\u00e9ger and Jean Debuffet. Inspirations from African art and African tribal world are central to this fine jewellery collection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy core inspiration also came from the Tubism period; I love how they interpret the ancient tribe for the modern world,\u201d says Patcharavipa (aka Pat). The designer also drew on books that she and her partner collected. \u201cMy partner is also half-Algerian and loves to collect African sculptures and statues,\u201d says Pat, who would accompany her partner to the museums to take in the real finish, textures of the paints and brush strokes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 18-karat Siam gold interpretations reflect her love of Dance, an artwork made by L\u00e9ger. \u201cI love that it is abstract but with so much life. I also love his lines and the figures.\u201d The picture Pat had was a black and white one, and that sparked her imagination. \u201cI wondered then what could be translated into gold and into colour. It is so mysterious \u2013 and that is what I liked and decided to explore through my work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pat encapsulates Dubuffet\u2019s artistry by digressing from her signature silhouettes. \u201cI think my signature textures match his paint strokes,\u201d she muses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pat\u2019s textures on gold are purely handmade, as were Dubuffet\u2019s. \u201cThese tactile, organic forms are inspired by my childhood memories: on the beach, going into the caves. It is pure, free and warm.\u201d The forms, she adds, are fearless and bold just like what Dubuffet would do with his papier-m\u00e2ch\u00e9 models and statues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The designer adoration for ancient and tribal art goes a long way back. She recalls the moment when she first laid eyes on her grandpa\u2019s collection of vintage ceramics. \u201cIt sparked something in me. There was a huge beaded necklace made out of ceramics in the shape of a bell, which I later transformed into a small-scale bead ring.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her Skipper Earrings, inspired by the forms and shapes in Leger\u2019s artwork, feature a twisted gold rope. \u201cI wanted the pair of earrings to drop to the shoulder and envisioned it as a statement piece.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Corps De Dame Comb is an interesting addition, as the designer did not want the entire Lignes d’Ete collection to have just jewellery. So, she threw in a gold comb into the creative mix. \u201cA comb is so important in Africa; hair accessory, to them, is very personal,\u201d she explains. The hair adornment celebrates African art and culture and has been rendered in Pat\u2019s inimitable style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another striking piece is the Les Trois Dunes Diamant Ring composed of bell-shaped beads. These beads with nice curves have slightly sharp edges. \u201cI wanted to pav\u00e9 set the diamonds on this ring. Four claws hold the diamonds in place and are set very tightly. The alternating diamond beads \u2013 flowing along the three rows stack \u2013 resemble an arrow pattern,\u201d adds Pat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lignes d’Ete collection, though launched digitally worldwide last fall, will be available in stores only from March this year. \u201cWe are planning a party and physical launch at our flagship store in Bangkok, in February,\u201d says the designer. If you are in Bangkok, do swing by.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
