Maxime Lis works simultaneously on “laboratory” projects developed with galleries and on editions designed for industrial production. In parallel, he collaborates closely with the newly established Franco-Chinese Institute of Arts and Design Management (IMAD), where he experiments with new creative methods. Following in the footsteps of Bruno Munari, he creates objects that restore a sense of balance between humans and their environment, and that demonstrate — through approaches rooted in history or through innovation — the importance of sensibility in everyday objects.
