Simone Pheulpin’s cotton geology.

Published 1 November 2026 · WHV

At first glance, Suzie might be a piece of coral, a mineral growth or a pale geological fragment. Move closer and the surface resolves into folds. Simone Pheulpin makes the familiar material of cotton behave like an unfamiliar landscape.

Cotton, folds and pins

Maison Parisienne identifies Suzie, from the Croissance series, as a unique work from 2026, measuring 35 cm wide and 30 cm high. Its listed materials are cotton folds and pins. The construction is central to the encounter: textile is gathered into a sculptural presence rather than used as a surface covering.

The value is in a specific artist’s way of seeing and making. A relatively modest material acquires complexity through accumulation, pressure and rhythm. The gallery’s listing provides a route to an enquiry, but its availability status is not a reservation and uniqueness is not evidence of financial appreciation.

Give the material proper care

For an acquisition, request an invoice identifying the work, a condition report and guidance on display, dust, humidity and handling. Establish how it should be transported and supported. The object’s delicate material logic deserves the same attention as its immediate visual surprise.
