Originally from the French Pyrenees, C\u00e9cile has always been passionate about creating and handcrafting everyday objects, especially when working with flexible materials, such as textiles and metal. After seven years as an architect, C\u00e9cile Gayraud, aka Gray, returned to her true calling: textile, fashion and accessory design. She trained in fashion design at Atelier Chardon Savard before developing her own weaving technique to create metallic mesh. Hundreds of gold wires are crimped by hand and shaped into sculptural \u201cgarment jewelry.\u201d Combining technical expertise and artistic sensibility, C\u00e9cile is inspired by the intersection of disciplines and scales. She is deeply attached to the craftsmanship of handwork, valuing the tactile connection with materials and the precision of each gesture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since 2019, she has been refining her unique savoir-faire and establishing her own creative studio. Winner of the Audience Prize at the Hy\u00e8res International Festival and the Elle-LVMH Craftswomen\u2019s Award, she collaborates with luxury houses such as Herm\u00e8s and Ruinart, pushing the boundaries of material innovation. Passionate about expanding her expertise, she seeks to explore new creative landscapes and connect with international artisans and designers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
