J.N.MELLOR CLUB A creative platform for Iconoclastic Sculpture/Objects

J.N.MELLOR CLUB is a visionary creative platform and artist duo based in Paris, France, established in 2019 by world-renowned shoe designer Karine Arabian and multidisciplinary artist Franck Blais. The studio specializes in the creation of iconoclastic objects and sculptures that occupy the fluid space between design, contemporary art, and fashion. Their work is characterized by a deep exploration of leather craftsmanship, often utilizing dormant luxury stocks to create radical and poetic accessories. Having served as laureates at Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto, the duo incorporates Japanese influences and technical research into their experimental leather finishing and structural designs. J.N.MELLOR CLUB has collaborated with prestigious institutions such as Cartier and has been recognized with the Grand Prix de la Création de la Ville de Paris. Their practice focuses on the monstration of the object, blurring the boundaries between functional utility and artistic expression. Each collection emphasizes tactile sensitivity and the transformation of the everyday into something spiritual and unique.
