Huguette | série Femme anonyme (Anonymous Women serie)

Femmes anonymes (Anonymous Women) is a series that pays tribute to everyday women, those quiet figures who shape our lives from the background: an aunt, a teacher, a neighbor, the local shopkeeper. Often absent from the public gaze, these women nonetheless occupy a deep and lasting place in our personal histories.

Each textile work is paired with a familiar first name, chosen for its common resonance. These names do not refer to specific individuals, but rather invite viewers to project their own memories, recognizing an intimate yet universal presence.

Through textile art and an intuitive exploration of color and texture, Cassandra Julien delves into the inner worlds of these women—their emotions, strength, vulnerability, and resilience. Fabric becomes a sensitive language, revealing the often-unseen richness of these discreet lives.

Femmes anonymes is a tribute to simplicity, to the poetry of everyday life, and to the many nuances hidden behind faces we think we know, but may never have truly seen.
