Backstage at Isabelle de Borchgrave
Everything is done by hand in the workshop in Brussels
Isabelle de Borchgrave has her way with paper. She cuts and paints it, and brings it to life in a magical way. As a young woman she did an internship at Fornasetti, where she could 'just draw drops'. Now she runs her own studio, doing projects for herself and for other companies. In case you noticed: she just created the windows at Hermès in Paris. Here's some backstage imagery of how her studio works.
Her recent feather exhibition was a major success
Isabelle is a colorist from start to finish
Even her files are put away in special paper editions
Needless to say: the artist has worked on historical costumes for major museums
Even entire cabinets are made out of paper
Her workshop is simply amazing and very inspiring
