French term

expérimenter la fragilité

French to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting staging an exhibition of ceramics
Projeter la mise en exposition pour Sèvres - Cité de la Céramique, c’est un peu comme si on expérimentait dans le même temps le trempage dans le bain d’émail, et le reparage de pièces en biscuit : il convient de faire, d’un seul geste, ample, pour donner la puissance au projet et aussitôt expérimenter la fragilité en pensant que chaque œuvre est unique.

I deliberately left out "its" or any article, because I think it is "fragility" as a concept that is being referred to here.
