While the autumn sun was fading slowly as winter in the South of France, I took a plane to meet Renate. We met in a town, halfway between the airport and her village. The air was heavy, but I was getting excited to meet her to unravel a part of the mystery and learn more about the Rocket. She was there, at the restaurant table. At a glance, we knew that we were meant to work together – the connection was instant. And without waiting, I showed her the Technical plan of the rockets. But Renate also was so excited about the project that she had already studied some solutions and made a prototype – white and red… It was beautiful. Indeed, she experienced that by mixing the clay with some technological microchips, the material got more resistant but also could fix itself – how useful could it be when crossing the universe. Her Husband knew a lot about Microchips; Sergey was then on board with the project.

17 visionnaires, so we needed 17 rockets – Renate was happy to help build and engineer them, but she did not want to create 17 copies – “I am not a Ceramic Factory!” she exclaimed. And to be honest, we were not sure what rocket shapes would survive the journey, so it was better to spread the risk… we will have indeed to take a chance. Renate scribbles 17 shapes that matched the technical plan, we bought the clay – and here we are, weeks and weeks of forming the clay, drying, baking, painting and baking again… with all the risk they can break in the process.

Mignonverse Synopsis: Some old Victorian sketches, a weird telescope, a journal from 1875 left behind by a forgotten Astronomer, and a story of friends fascinated by what they see, far, far away, in the sky – The Mignonverse.

Embark on a journey with Lapin Mignon and Tagachi, following the steps of a brave lady and creating their own adventure, where imagination is the limit.

We will embark on a rocket, and full steam on a new Universe, to discover, planet by planet, brand new worlds, cute, and where kindness is rewarded.

A new kind of CryptoArt Project, generated and dynamic from hand-made watercolour sketches.
