“A Day in the Life” with: Visual Artist Sylvie Boulet

Sylvie Boulet is a painter with a love for everything ‘paper’. Her collages brought her to bookbinding and the making of artists’ books. Studio space constraints condensed all of her passions into smaller, one-of-a-kind pieces- hence, the jewelry.

Which ’hood are you in?

LaSalle

What do you do?

I’m an artist who hand-paints or rolls paper beads. I reclaim mismatched/ broken, or second-hand jewelry and create something new from what already existed.

All based, with passion, on the principles of recovery and recycling

What are you currently working on?

I am currently exploring the different possibilities of upcycled plastics.
