Artist Sculptor-Caster

An art of synthesis is being developed, today, in my artistic search, everything happens as if I was trying to search in the depths of the material everything that gives its flavour and its “bulkiness” to the world to then lighten it, sharpen it. Down to the invisible


As for material I use bronze that I melt and cast myself, half-precious stones


I create the mould beforehand, without going through the intermediate steps. The mould can be made with clay, foundry sand, refractory plaster
 then comes the cast, the deburring, the chiselling


In the background of all this process, there is a deep and strong relation to nature. I’m fetching the energies that fuel my shapes and my most primitive thoughts.

There is, in my process of creation, a call from instinctive forces, archaic, in the very same spirit as the band Cobra from the 1950s, of which P. Alechinsky was a member.

Furniture

Dans mon travail de mobilier en bronze poli ou patiné, je recherche des formes organiques, sculpturales
 une alternance entre le vide et le plein

Sculpture

I’m having fun !!!

Mes sculptures en bronze baignent dans un univers décalé et parfois loufoque mais toujours rieur. Les pierres semi-précieuses sont omniprésentes


All my creations are unique objects
