Sometimes just one page in a magazine will get me to buy it. Such is the case with the Mai/Juin issue of Marie Claire Maison and page 119. It features a mobile by Lyndie Dourthe, my latest greatest insprirationix:

From her site: "A bit of botany, a little voodoo, a little anatomy, and a hint of superstition ... the workshop of Lyndie Dourthe is a cabinet of minuscule curiosities."
Note: for some reason the press call her Lyndie Dourthe, rather than Lynde, without an "i", as it shows on her site. Not quite sure why. Repondez s'il te plait, Lynde.
UPDATE: Lyndie wrote and in fact the correct spelling is Lyndie, with an "i". It turns out that the page of her web site I was reading was a bad Google translation page. I will pay closer attention from now on. Merci encore Lyndie :)
She treats her subjects as a scientist or curator might, cataloging and classifying them in little treasure boxes:
Merci beaucoup pour l'inspiration Lyndie!!
