s like compression, material impermanence, and information loss.

Drawing from science fiction, scientific imagery, and historical archives, he blends cutting-edge technologies with artisanal methods to craft silent narratives that oscillate between futuristic visions and organic realities. A graduate of the Design Academy Eindhoven, he often collaborates with scientists and engineers—most notably at École Polytechnique—infusing his work with lab-driven precision and material experimentation.

Since 2020, his work has been exhibited across Europe, including at Sotheby’s, Consulat Voltaire, 3537 (Paris), Hôtel Gouin (Tours), Schloss Hollenegg (Austria), Alcova and Spazio Fonte (Milan), and Kazerne (Eindhoven). His project Moon 925 is part of the permanent collection of the Silver Museum in the Netherlands.

Beyond his studio practice, he curates exhibitions—such as Corpus Machina during Paris Photo 2023—and serves as a jury member for the French Institute of Design.
Through a practice rooted in research and narrative, Paul Youenn builds a poetic dialogue between science, craftsmanship, and speculation.
