  • Brandy Guidry Aubé of Studio Aubé is a welder fabricator specializing in various metal work and functional art. This episode is set in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana and highlights Brandy's career as a maker, how she began her welding journey, and where it has taken her.
    "Native to the Lafayette, Louisiana area, Brandy has spent the better part of her life in Cecilia, Louisiana. While studying Industrial Design at the University of Southwestern Louisiana, Brandy began to direct her design focus towards mass-produced products. Still having a deep appreciation for the arts and understanding the significance of individualism, Brandy began to create what she has labeled as “functional art.” This functional art incorporates the design ideology of mass produced products with the uniqueness of individual pieces of art. This in turn creates pieces that consider both human factors as well as an aesthetic pleasure. She combines sewing, photography, and metalwork into a diverse repertoire of work ranging from furniture to fashion accessories" (excerpt from studio-aube.com).

      @@brandyaube217 Good day to you miss Guidry-Aubé. Well, our ancestors (Guidry and Haché) are both Acadien ;-D. Is Guidry family in Louisiana since the Deportation? Aubé should not be a ''difficulty'' to pronounce but there is so many earing differences (in some US of A places, overtime, as an example, the name Beaulne became Bone because people do not ear it well) As per Louisiana census, there is, still, 250,000 persons saying-stating french is there language. Some, as Jourdan Thibodeaux, Norbert Leblanc, Zacharie Richard and many others, continu not only to speak notre langue d'origine but make a point to emphasis it in every moment/aspect of their life and of/for their family, friends and general environment. Wish you, and your family and friends, un bien Joyeux Noël, une excellente Année 2021 et surtout la santé. Be well (from Montréal)
