Mathias Augustyniak

« Désir d’une femme pour un homme – poèmes futiles can be read as an intimate conversation between a man and a woman in words and images. It is also a collection of poems and drawings that began, strangely enough, with a fashion story. In the hand of Mathias Augustyniak, one half of the design duo M/M Paris, drawing is a powerful and introspective tool—a link between hidden worlds. As a creative director, he often employs drawing to bring out the hidden messages in photography. In the case of “Libertine,” a subliminally erotic fashion story by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin, Augustyniak’s subconscious caught up with him, ultimately leading him on a thirteen-day journey of the mind and the soul. »
