Loumi Le Floch I Blue Orange and Red 2026

Loumi Le Floch is a French artist and designer whose practice explores the quiet poetry of transformation through experimental surfaces and sculptural textile forms. Born in the southwest of France, surrounded by abundant natural landscapes, she developed an early sensitivity to the textures, rhythms, and silent metamorphoses of the living world — an attention that continues to shape her artistic language today. Educated at ENSAV La Cambre in Brussels and later at the Weissensee Kunsthochschule in Berlin, Le Floch has developed a singular practice situated between contemporary art, material research, craftsmanship, and sustainable innovation. Recently established at Ateliers Zaventem, a renowned laboratory for interdisciplinary design experimentation, she continues her research into bio-based materials and organic transformation. At the center of her ongoing investigation is Precious Peels, a body of work in which eggplant peels are transformed into delicate translucent surfaces suspended between paper and textile. Through subtle chemical reactions, Le Floch extracts unexpected chromatic depths from the material — ranging from vibrant reds and deep blues to velvety browns — creating works that evoke organic stained glass animated by light itself. These handcrafted surfaces reinvent interior ornamentation through a refined dialogue between fragility and presence. Inserted between panes of glass for unique architectural glazing, transformed into wall coverings, or developed into exceptional collectible objects, the works elevate space through their delicacy, tactility, and luminous elegance. Le Floch’s practice reflects on themes of time, fragility, renewal, and the body. Her layered compositions evoke skins, shells, membranes, and natural peelings, suggesting processes of protection, shedding, and regeneration. Each work balances intimacy with architectural scale, inviting both sensory and contemplative engagement. Bringing together high-end design, ancestral craft traditions, and sustainable innovation, Loumi Le Floch’s creations have been presented at major contemporary design platforms including Maison & Objet in Paris, Collectible in Brussels, and international design week exhibitions.
