UNFOLDING
How a commission takes form — from first conversation to Day Forty.
A commission is not a transaction. It is a conversation — and then a composition.
Every work is composed through the Fiona Frequency™, and every commission begins the same way: with an Eclosia™ — the session that reads your space before anything is made. What that session finds becomes the written intention of your commission.
Here is the journey, step by step.
I. The Conversation
Where every commission begins.
You bring the space — the light it receives, the life that moves through it, the quality of presence you want it to hold. A structured conversation, in person or by video: the room, your season of life, and what the space is being asked to produce.
What we're listening for: the gap between what the room is doing — and what it is for.
II. The Eclosia
The reading.
Your space is read like a living system: light paths and sightlines, sound, movement, the objects it holds — the chapter of life it is still guarding, and the one it is being asked to open. Photography, a floor plan, hours of light. You receive a one-page Frequency Brief: the reading's findings, translated into palette, form, and placement — and the intention of the work, written in one sentence you approve.
Deliverables: the written Intention · the Frequency Brief.
III. The Composition
The making.
The work is created to the Brief — pigment, image, and fracture resolved into form. You receive one private mid-process glimpse, chosen with you; the finished piece remains unseen until installation. Each week, fragments of the process are shared: a texture, a passage of colour, a line of the intention.
Timeline: typically 8–12 weeks, by scope.
IV. The Installation
The arrival.
Placed, lit, and settled with you. A short ritual to end the commission: the room, quiet, and the work seen for the first time. The Certificate of Authenticity accompanies the piece — signed, dated, and bearing the intention of its commission.
V. The Day Forty
The review that closes the circle.
Forty days after installation, a scheduled call: how is the room behaving? Often the moment clients describe it best — the space holding them differently, everything they bring to it working better.
You don't need to be an art expert.
You don't need to know what you want before we talk. You don't need to understand energy work, naturopathy, or prayer. You just need to feel that something in your space — or in your life — is ready to change. I'll handle the rest.
Commission slots are intentionally limited each season.

FAQ:
-
Q : What distinguishes a commissioned piece from purchasing from a curated collection?
-
A : Commissions involve 8–12 weeks of collaborative development: a site consultation, an Eclosia™ — the reading of your space — and iteration reviews. Curated collections are pre-completed works available for immediate acquisition, with delivery in 2–3 weeks. Both undergo the same intentional creation process; commissions simply extend the dialogue to match specific architectural and personal parameters.
-
Q : Do you work with spaces outside Monaco?
-
A : Yes — worldwide. Early sessions are conducted by video with photographs of your space; travel for installation is quoted separately. The reading travels well.
-
Q : What if I don't know which room to start with?
-
A : Most clients don't. The Eclosia™ is designed to find the room — usually the one you already suspect. Bring the space you live in most; the session does the sorting.
