Game On

In one of the preparatory drawings for his collection “Mon Cirque,” Jaime Hayon imagines a character with a sarcastic smile: is he a modern Harlequin? A self-portrait? With pointed shoes and dotted clothes, he aims his water guns at circus figurines: vases become personages, clowns transform into lamps, and table feet turn into pagodas. Above his head, a comic strip bubble in the shape of a heart warns: « Let’s play now ».

For his first collaboration with Galerie kreo, following the ”Carnival Series” collection of mirrors in 2014, Jaime Hayon has created a collection inspired by sports—a theme in tune with Galerie kreo’s DNA as Clémence and Didier Krzentowski both come from this industry, having participated in the production of the Olympic Games of Albertville in 1992.
