TECHNOLOGICAL STUDY
A technological study consists in objective observations and examinations of the materiality of an artwork. This step leads to a better understanding of the nature of a piece and its history. Those informations gathered allows to build an appropriate proposal treatment for each work of art. Based on this study, our stdio can provide a condition report or advices on the conservation state of an artwork.

Based on the study conducted, our studio can provide a condition report or advise on the conservation state of an artwork. Scientific imagery and cartography are tools now commonly used by the conservation field. The observations gathered through the preliminary study can be efficiently transcribed into a visual form. Each of those visual tools are carefully chosen to highlight specific and pertinent characteristics of an artwork.

DESIGN OBJECTS
Synthetic materials
Art objects refer to functional items which were not originally made with artistic intentions but which are currently considered as part of art collections regardless. By this general term, we refer to ethnographic, archaeological and design productions. The large number and heterogeneity of objects in such collections reflect a wide range of materials and technologies that men have developed through time. Each type of objects requires a unique approach of conservation depending on the nature and status of the object.

PAINTINGS
Panel & canvas paintings
Paintings are bi-dimensional artworks composed of several paint layers applied onto wooden, canvas or other supports. The variety of materials encountered in artworks give rise to many challenges. Our team is specialized in the conservation of ancient, modern and contemporary paintings. Treating a painting also means ensuring its safe handling and preservation in a given context. To do so, we intervene on the framework by restoring or adapting existing exhibition systems. For tailored services, we can provide custom wood and metal structures or manufactured climatic boxes.

CONTEMPORARY ART
Paintings - sculptures - installations
Installations become works of art through the process of being installed. Often created for particular sites and time-specific occasions, re-installations of the work may vary in different contexts. Those often include ephemeral materials, "objets trouvés" or time-based media, or both, such as audio-visual and electronic media which are now most often obsolete, The understanding of the artist intentions is fundamental to visualise the original aim and expected result. Partnerships with the artists allow us to better document and preserve the theatrical and sensorial aspects of an installation, such as sound, vision, touch, smell and spectator involvement in interactive works.

SCULPTURES
Stone -polychrome
Sculptures are works of art characterized by their three dimensional form. Through time, sculptures have become a significant part of our cultural heritage. Made during different eras and from various materials, sculptures carry a wide range of values and challenges. In our studio we embrace this diversity as a nature of art and are trained to treat multiple scenarios as polychrome sculptures, made out of stone materials, wood and other non traditional materials like plastics or even foods.

PREVENTIVE CONSERVATION
Microclimate frame - packing
MODIFIER TEXTE Preserving artworks also mean adapting our approach to their environment. Several factors have a direct influence on the stability of their condition. Reaching a better understanding of the conservation context allows us to create the best exhibition and storage conditions. To emphasise this, we offer a long term survey of collections, as well as emergency and disaster management protocoles. The painting is framed in a sealed, air-tight environment This small closed air space surrounding the painting helps the painting maintain a stable moisture content during periods of temperature change. This intervention can be considered for fragile panel and canvas paintings. Works of art are often subject to transportation and long term storage. Their safe handling is an essential part of the conservation protocol. To meet this particular need, we manufacture suitable and specific packing systems for each object.
