Sacrée Frangine's latest collection of art prints tell the story of a slow and calm day through three collage compositions. Gado - meaning midday in Mina, the native language of Benin, gives the collection a subtle connection to the cultural heritage of Aline - one half of the artistic duo.

Sacrée Frangine (FR)

Sacrée Frangine is a creative duo based between Paris and South France. The word “Sacrée” literally translates to “sacred” but paired with a substantive, it becomes equivalent to the expression “a hell of a”, while “Frangine” is an informal way to say “sister”. So in other words, Ceillia and Aline are the closest of friends. The duo explores shapes and colour palettes to create simplified narratives and compositions and Their work expresses the beauty of everyday things through a minimalist and pleasing aesthetic.

“These three pieces tell the story of a gentle day: Fié (morning), Gado (midday), Nufiala (twilight). By naming them in Mina, my father’s native language, I wanted to create a subtle connection between my heritage and my work.”
