Announcement of the five finalists in the 2025–2027 Craft Competition

The Fondation Etrillard is delighted to announce the five finalists for the second edition of the Crafts competition “Âmes d’Œuvres”.

Our jury, comprising Olivier Gabet, Pierre-Alain Le Cousin, Sophie Mouquin, Pierre-Henri Beyssac and Chantal Prod’hom, has carefully examined the fifty or so entries, deliberated and completed the difficult task of selecting five.

Here is the list of the five finalist teams:

– Geoffrey Hillereau, designer; Laetitia Baqué, embroidery artisan; and Victor Moulinié, textile designer

– Robin Kerr, potter

– Helena Clade, object designer; Diane Diebold, textile artisan; and Tristan Pierrick, product designer

– Caroline Besse, decorative painter; and Jean-Baptiste Sénéquier, designer

– Yannick Szekany, bronze caster

The five selected finalists must now produce a model of their reinterpretation of the Vase aux lions in preparation for the next stage: the Grand Oral.

We wish them the best of luck for the rest of the competition!
