Coup de COEUR : Évelie MOUILA
pieces that explore the sensation of wearing jewellery
Le corps « encadré » et tenu, avec douceur et fermeté. Le cadre met en valeur mais aussi donne à voir, pointe l’attention sur ce qui est encadré, et en même temps lui donne un « soutien », un cadre ………
at COLLECT 2013 (at Saatchi Gallery (London, UK) From May 10 until May 13 May, 2013 ) – Project Space: Évelie Mouila – pieces that explore the sensation of wearing jewellery. Made by Évelie Mouila, the installation combines making & visual communication. Through her practice Mouila found an unexpected solution to materialise the relation between body, jewellery & clothes. Coming from the idea that jewellery alone can be seen as clothing, she creates jewellery that dresses the body, becoming clothing, & clothing that dresses the body is jewellery.
French Jewellery & Graphic designer Évelie Céline Mouila lives in London.
Her loves are photography, visual communication and accessories.
Mouila learns graphic design in Paris at the Ensaama (National School of Applied Arts and Crafts) to become graphic designer. In 2009, she arrives in London to work at the Christopher Raeburn Studio. While on assignment she got broad fashion knowledge.
In 2011 she starts a Master of Art at the Royal college of Art in London in the Goldsmithing, Silversthing, Metalwork and Jewellery department.
In 2012, she is graduated with the show and a collection called “Juliette”. Her collection emphasizes the actual lines of the body but also create new lines and contours. She creates connections that you don’t normally think about for a piece of jewellery.
After participating at the London Design Festival, this current work will be exhibit at the “Pinakothek Der Moderne” during the Schmuck 2013 which open March 7, 2013 at Munich and at Project Space of COLLECT 2013, the International Art Fair for Contemporary Object in the Saatchi Gallery, London, on 10-13 May 2013.
Currently working alongside Hans Stofer and Michael Rowe, she is curator and visual designer for the Jewellery department of the Royal College of Art

My 2012 collection emphazises the actual lines of the body but also creates new lines and contours. It’s about an intimate feeling of wearing jewelry that only the wearer can feel. Part of the jewelry pieces have direct connection with the skin and are worn hidden underneath the clothes : the other part is the decorative element and is visible.
