A Meaningful Collaboration with Artivist Charlotte Ensaigne

From a creative writing circle in our Geneva boutique to a limited edition briefcase — a shared belief in culture as counter-power.

"nous sommes un contre-pouvoir"

The Story

When Charlotte Ensaigne walked into the SEP Shop at Confederation Centre it felt less like a coincidence and more like a sign that a meaningful conversation was going to take place.

Charlotte is a writer, artist, activist, and creative writing facilitator based in Switzerland. She hosts Ateliers d'écriture — intimate writing workshops in French — guided by a conviction that writing is not personal expression alone, but a form of collective power.

That is a sentence SEP understands. Her collaboration with us began the way the best ones do: organically, through genuine affinity, before anyone called it a collaboration at all.

at SEP Geneva

Charlotte hosts Ateliers d'écriture — in French — across Switzerland. It seemed perfectly fitting to both of us that her Geneva edition should be hosted at SEP, in our flagship space at Confederation Centre: her workshops are about voice, reclamation, and the courage to write what you are not supposed to say. SEP and her work are both, at their core, about authorship.

The SEP Briefcase + Hand-Embroidered Strap

To mark the collaboration, we created a limited edition offer exclusively for Charlotte's community: the SEP Briefcase paired with its hand-embroidered leather shoulder strap, at the price of the bag alone.

Made in Italy from the finest grain leather, available only in Switzerland, while stock lasts.
