In the 1970s, French artist Cesar, known for his large-form hydraulically compacted sculptures, began a series of small totemic compresses from family heirlooms and friends' jewelry. Now, more than two decades after Cesar's death, Hedi Slimane, the artistic, creative, and image director of Celine, revisits those works by creating limited-edition replicas in crushed vermeil and silver. Being under pressure has never looked so alluring.
