For twenty years a conservator specialising in gilded wood, Sophie Blanc gradually turned away from antique furniture to lay her delicate layers of gold on elements gathered from nature, transforming bare plant matter into works covered in gold. Exhibited at the Domaine de Chaumont-sur-Loire in 2023, her explorations of vegetal forms continue to surprise and delight both art enthusiasts and lovers of the natural world.
