BalrogWhips Report post Posted January 10 Hello leatherworking enthusiasts! My name is François, I'm 34 years old, originally from Belgium, now based in Lyon, France. My atypical career path has taken me from the benches of biotechnology to the bench of leather craftsmanship, where I strive to marry tradition with innovation. My adventure into the world of leather goods is as singular as the pieces I create. With a degree in biotechnology, I bring scientific precision to my craftsmanship, fusing intellect with creativity. My academic career is a testament to the successful fusion of science and art.My field of expertise extends far beyond traditional leatherwork. From ancient forging to cutlery and jewelry design, I navigate with ease through a variety of disciplines. My portfolio even includes work in the unconventional field of BDSM manufacture, illustrating my willingness to explore the boundaries of my craft.In addition to my studio, I'm also involved as a cultural mediator and journalist. My involvement with the media outlet UAP Check, specializing in unidentified aerial phenomena, geostrategy and scientific innovation, demonstrates my commitment to exploring the unknown. As a journalist, I offer a unique perspective, interweaving elements of history, anthropology and AI to deepen my analyses.As an avowed geek, I find joy in a multitude of hobbies, from history and literature to new technologies and video games. My involvement in martial arts and historical re-enactment further underscores my varied interests, creating a rich canvas that feeds and enriches my artistic creations. In my hands, leather transcends its utilitarian function to become a canvas for artistic expression. My journey from biotechnologist to craftsman illustrates the infinite possibilities that emerge when intellect meets craft. By constantly pushing the boundaries of traditional leatherworking, I remain a shining example of the harmony between science, history and innovation in the world of creative craftsmanship.
