Description
Vannerie Yann-Marie: The art of weaving.
I'm an Artisane Vannière in the Massif des Bauges.
If you're looking for a professional to bring your ideas to life, whether it's elegant, sturdy storage units for your living room, or plant weaving for your garden, architecture or art projects, I'll be delighted to work with you to create a design that matches your mood, universe and intentions.
So if you have a specific project or a crazy idea (I love crazy ideas), contact me.

I like to interweave art and material to create bridges between the human and the vegetable. Thanks to this heritage of yesteryear, all I need to do is add my tools and more contemporary know-how to bring basketry back to life.
I thrive on weaving variable dimensions as I come across them. Whether ephemeral or long-lasting, I create baskets, faithful and ecological companions for everyday use, as well as indoor or outdoor arrangements, several meters long, for art installations, school greening, architecture or landscaping.
My passion for passing on my skills gives me a particular joy in passing on my love of plant weaving from hand to hand. I run workshops, events and demonstrations with families, schoolchildren, local residents and visitors.
Gestures for the environment
Basketry is where humans and plants meet.
It is a universal and ancestral skill, which over the centuries has been chosen as an essential craft. It has been chosen to meet the private or professional needs of communities, while expressing a singular robustness and aesthetics specific to each territory.
The majority of plastic containers we find today did not exist even half a century ago. Initially, they were made from wickerwork, made to measure, as part of the virtuous circle of plant fibres - local, renewable resources that nourish their environment.
Practising basketry gives me the opportunity to help keep alive this cultural heritage linked to nature, by reinforcing our autonomy and sovereignty, our ability to do things ourselves, with our own hands.
