Art craft:
Self made steel sculptor since 5 years.
Coppersmith/boilemaker diploma. No sculpture or art school background
I realise varial sizes steel sculptures:, from
30 cm to 2,50 m high. Most of them are about 55 cm high.
most of the time, I am inspired by heads, masks, small figures…
as material, I use any form of commercial steel ( tubes, shell…).
I do not use pre-formed material from someone else.
I start from the grosser material I can find,
My sculpture :
I am lookinf forward to be in synergy with the material I work with,
i try to be insight those forms which are inert while tey are cold,
and very amenable while it is hot.
During my art work, a kind of surreal dialog happen to be with the
material.
My sculpture attracs you in a personnal universe, where the steadiness
of the object is an appeal to fade away.
I do not give any name to my work, i use numbers( chronology) and
let anyone's imagination capturing the feeling without giving it a
name or a title.
I was working in the building business and this work couldn't give
me the possibility to go further in my artistic research. It reached
a point of no return when I stopped my work and went trough my passion.
Finally I have no regret...and am still building things! Builders
and scluptors have this in common Buildings monuments that stand and
last in time.
