In 2024, I created my first large-scale, handcrafted architectural model uniting the Majorelle Garden, Villa Oasis, the Berber Arts Museum, and the Yves Saint Laurent Museum in Marrakech. Using copper wire, I meticulously crafted the plants to capture realistic shapes and true-to-life proportions, aiming to present a unified miniature view that highlights both the architectural beauty and botanical diversity of these iconic sites. The model was featured in the exhibition “Jardin Majorelle: Who Are We?” held for the garden’s 100th anniversary at the Yves Saint Laurent Museum. Alongside historical documents and artworks, it offered visitors a detailed understanding of the connections between these landmarks as a cohesive whole. After the exhibition, the model was relocated to a temporary pavilion in Villa Oasis gardens, where it remains on display today.

The PIERRE BERGÉ Museum of Berber Arts, inaugurated in 2011, showcases an overview of the extraordinary creativity of this people, the oldest in North Africa. From the Rif to the Sahara, over 600 objects collected by Pierre Bergé and Yves Saint Laurent attest to the richness and diversity of a culture that remains vibrant to this day.
