Didier Birée, also known as SPIROMIX, was born in Paris in 1964. Trained as a fashion designer (Studio Berçot, Paris, 1987), but also a graphic designer and musician, living between Alençon (Orne) and Paris, he has been producing Recyclart since the early 90s. Fascinated by lights from the 1930s, he restored several lamps before creating his own models, unique pieces made from recycled objects. In 2007, he revealed his creations by opening his first shop in Alençon. A member of the Ateliers d’Arts de France since 2009, he participates in salons and shows his work regularly.
His moving, poetic, whimsical world borrows from cinema and childhood memories. All of his creations are one-of-a-kind art pieces.
An early ecologist, Didier Birée’s creations have a negligible carbon footprint. Avoiding machining, his objects are only drilled and then assembled with rivets and screws.
Chrome, tin and light sources (using environmentally sound low-energy bulbs) make his work more attractive. The excesses of consumption, industrial scrap or other waste is collected from Emmaüs (a charitable organization), flea markets, garage sales and industrial waste.
As soon as they are created, the sculptures are made available on Facebook. Some pieces can be reproduced in the same spirit, but not identically, so they all remain unique.
Each sculpture will be made to the application so unique and different and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
