For Marion Pinaffo and Raphaël Pluvinage, a.k.a. Pinaffo & Pluvinage, interaction and play are core tenets of a vibrant multimedia practice. Their kinetic sculptures, which are often participatory and immersive, employ brightly colored wood elements, electronics, and intricate frameworks, sometimes augmented by flowing textiles or colorful smoke that animate with the help of motors or human intervention.
Whether installed in a garden, inside a cavernous space, or within a family-friendly museum setting, Pinaffo & Pluvinage’s works invite us to engage with formal elements of shape, material, and scale. The duo released a book last year with Éditions B42 (available in French) that highlights work made during the past decade. See more and follow updates on Instagram.
