SKIN AS A WORK OF ART PEAUrigami®

ESDR is pleased to welcome Corinne Dechelette, PharmD, PhD (skin biology) to ESDR 2022. Corinne will run an interactive exhibition entitled “PEAUrigami®” during the meeting.
This exhibition will be located in the exhibition area.

ABOUT CORINNE DECHELETTE, the creator of PEAUrigami®

With a Ph.D in cutaneous biology and as a former intern and pharmacist in the severe burns unit at the hospital of Lyon, I am passionate about the fabulous organ that is the skin.

 

Skin is a work of art and as such, I create original educational-artistic PEAUrigami® compositions for display in the medical office and waiting room. A fusion of my passion for skin and for Japan, PEAUrigami® provides an innovative perspective through skin origami. Handcrafted with skin papers, these origamis are educational-artistic tools that can be used to explain dermatoses and the physiology of the skin.  This unique concept of medical art has been the subject of 4 publications in peer-reviewed journals.

 

I invite you – researchers and dermatologists – to co-create with me and to make personalized and unique PEAUrigami® compositions: such as a dermatosis that you specialize in; a skin structure that you are particularly fascinated by; or a design made with paper modeled on your own skin. And if you are as convinced as I am that an artistic approach is useful as a form of primary prevention for some dermatoses, we can carry out unprecedented, exploratory studies.

 

Dermatologically yours,

Corinne DECHELETTE, PharmD., PhD.

ABOUT the exhibition of PEAUrigami® at ESDR 2022

After PEAUrigami® dedicated to the physiology of the skin, exhibited during the ESDR 2019, I continued my creative work on skin with the artistic reinterpretation of the main dermatoses within the framework of the PEAUrigami® [DERMATOGAMI] exhibition.

 

This new exhibition is created from photos of skin affected by the main dermatoses and is based on the etymology of the dermatosis presented.

PEAUrigami® [DERMATOGAMI]

As an interactive exhibition, you are invited during the congress to fold a skin cell in origami: keratinocyte, melanocyte, fibroblast or adipocyte according to your research topic.
