Wendy Andreu

Born in 1990 in Oloron-Ste-Marie, France, Wendy graduated from The Design Academy Eindhoven in 2016. Wendy is a craft designer who aims to communicate through the materials she is using. By experimenting with them, she finds surprising outcomes that can be translated into functional design proposals. She is able to execute any idea that comes to her mind in order to check the potential of it. She likes to think of the bridges between matter, people and space in an open way. In her research, the context has as much importance as the concept, without forgetting the quality of the making and the aesthetic of the pieces. Wendy Andreu won the Public Prize of the Accessory competition at the Villa Noailles in Hyères (2017) and the Dorothy Waxman Textile Prize in New-York City (2017). In 2018, she received a grant from the Stimulerings Fund (NL) in order to develop her project; Regen. In 2020, she was one of the Rising Talent France during the Maison et Objet January edition. She is currently working in Paris XIX where she is developing experimental work as well as commissioned projects for public and private clients.
