Creating artistic and innovative kites: the astonishing practice of artist Victor Guerithault

Créer des cerfs-volants artistiques et innovants : l’étonnante pratique de l’artiste dans le vent Victor Guerithault

Artist Victor Guerithault is redefining the traditional craft of kite-making through geometric innovation and 3D-printing technology. Showcasing his work at the 32nd Festival du cerf-volant in Châtelaillon, Guerithault utilizes complex tetrahedral structures inspired by the aerodynamic experiments of Alexander Graham Bell. His approach moves away from traditional bamboo frames toward a modular construction system involving custom-designed 3D-printed connectors that allow for hundreds of unique, gravity-defying aerial forms.
