Ainsi Beaton encense-t-il une époque, se souvient des gens d’influence, rallume le chic, l’esprit et la déraison.

Summary:
Afin de faire le point sur ses années de pratique en tant qu’architecte et designer, Maryla Sobek propose de considérer ensemble ces deux activités que sont l’architecture et le vêtement. La réflexion théorique à laquelle elle a consacré plusieurs années l’aura menée à un constat : la conception du vêtement occidental se trouve dans une impasse, et ce tant du point de vue de la structure que de la volumétrie. Quelles sont les solutions qui permettraient au vêtement de ne plus être tributaire des dimensions et de la structure du corps humain ? Sobek s’est lancé le défi de les explorer. Pour ce faire, elle se tourne vers l’architecture et opte pour un retour aux sources. Le choix d’une architecture non occidentale s’est imposé, plus particulièrement l’architecture dogon que l’on peut voir dans la falaise de Bandigara au Mali et qui est aujourd’hui considérée comme le parfait exemple de la rationalité en architecture vernaculaire.
