Monique Fei is a happy glamorous spinster. She likes endless night of knitting. Monique has a knit fetish and she often fantasied being covered with yarns. Her textiles are above all a playful experimentation. It is while living in Shanghai, China, that she discovered what will then become her ultimate craft : crochet. Shanghai was a highly inspiring journey where she met a community of Ayis- elder active, independent and powerful women - who transmitted her a passion for yarns and stitches and especially crochet.Her theoretical background - she graduated from a dual bachelor degree in Art History and Law in 2016 - also has a strong impact on her practice. History and stories are essential to Monique. She is creating her own narratives. She transforms traditional shapes and techniques to create pieces that interrogate their own material and making process. Through very strenuous and time consuming handmade techniques Monique lets time take its course to slowly hand craft one-of-a-kind pieces.
