'C’est si peu dire que je t’aime' – 'It’s an understatement to say I love you' – is a declaration of love for which words fall short. Louis Aragon’s words are carved into a stone, with letters covering the entire surface. A gesture of deep affection.

Maud Bekaert designs each letter by hand. She then carves the letter design out of natural stone using a hammer and chisel. This stone forms the basis for a mould. Using a sustainable mixture of marble and lime, she casts the pure white stone into that mould. The grey stone is finished with a matt grey-green acrylic paint. The stones are designed for indoor use and are therefore not suitable for outdoor use.
Each piece is created entirely by hand in Maud’s studio. Only hands are used; no machines are involved. The materials used are manufactured in Europe. Maud strives to create each piece as sustainably as possible.
