French artist Laure Catugier recently visited our Grade 8 and Grade 11 art students, sharing her work from a three-month residency at the Texture Printmaking Lab in Tainan 🇫🇷🎨 Through her unique approach, everyday product packaging was transformed into architectural, three-dimensional spaces—inviting students to see familiar materials in entirely new ways. She also introduced her artist books, designed to be explored from multiple angles, challenging the way we read and experience visual storytelling.
