Fabibijou

Our creative work is built around an interest in the forms of nature. Having often had the desire to fix them in time, Denis Ampleman began research allowing him to discover this ancient technique called electrodeposition, which he adapted to fossilize various elements of nature. In collaboration with the artist Camille Villeneuve, they jointly developed a production of plant ornaments: original and unique works of art, which are fossilized and metallic fragments of nature. It is the perfect meeting between the theme and the treatment of the material.

Since 1995, the artist duo has created a common jewelry collection, under the name Fabibijou. For many years now, and even before the creation of our line of jewelry, our work in crafts has led us to take an interest in several materials and techniques, each with a distinctive creative potential. We therefore individually progressed and had different productions.

For eleven years, Camille Villeneuve worked in ceramic production. For his part, Denis Ampleman worked with glass, painting and sculpture. In addition, in order to perfect our knowledge, each of us has taken a course in art history and thus faced the process of creation.
