Profile

Based in Paris, Agnès Sevestre is an artist, craftswoman, and instructor. A graduate of the École Boulle in bronze chasing and setting, she creates unique jewelry, objects, and sculptures in her studio, imbued with poetry and strength. Her world, deeply inspired by nature and the aesthetics of Art Nouveau, reinvents the codes of classical ornamentation to give them a resolutely contemporary feel.

Each piece she creates is born from a sensitive dialogue with the material. The metal, initially rigid and cold, transforms under her hands: it softens, molds, and comes to life. This transformation is at the heart of her artistic and pedagogical approach.

With over 11 years of experience, Agnès enthusiastically shares her expertise, whether during workshops or with students at the DNMADE Création Métal program at ENSAAMA. Deeply committed to the transmission of artistic crafts, she pays particular attention to younger generations as well as audiences less familiar with these practices.

In 2024, she published Découvrir la ciselure, a self-published book introducing students to this subtle and delicate art, with the aim of making learning it accessible to as many people as possible. She is also a member of the jury for the Un des Meilleurs Apprentis de France competition, contributing with her attentive and caring eye to uncovering the talents of tomorrow.
