Description

“Fragment d’aile (Wing Fragment)” belongs to the Microcosmos collection, which highlights the fragile details of living beings. In this embroidered artwork, the butterfly’s wing does not appear in its entirety but as a fragment, evoking memory, loss, and fleeting beauty.
Created by Satoshi Sekimoto, MOF in Haute Couture Embroidery and Master Artisan of Art, the piece combines Lunéville hook embroidery with needlework delicacy. Silk threads, beads, and sequins reproduce the subtle iridescence of butterfly wings.
A fragment turned relic, symbol of the fragility of the moment, elevated through Maison Sekimoto’s exceptional craftsmanship.

Composition: Lunéville hook and needle embroidery, glass beads, sequins, silk and cotton threads, on canvas.
