Description

The wood fragments and comes alive under the artist's hand. This sculpture explores the duality between raw material and the finesse of the line. Icarus, winged, emerges from a support of driftwood. The body merges into the natural texture of the wood. Verticality dominates the composition. The spread wings bring an airy lightness to the whole. The surface work highlights the veins and fibers of the material. The posture remains still and solemn. The gaze seems turned inward. The square base ensures rigorous stability. The balance between the polished and the raw creates a constant visual dialogue. This piece testifies to a technical mastery inherited from applied arts. The silhouette gradually fades towards the bottom. The driftwood retains its organic and wild aspect. The work rests on a discreet metal pedestal.

Presentation

Jérôme BARREAU has lived in the Arcachon Basin since the year 2000.

He studied at the École Boulle in Paris (higher school of applied arts for furniture trades) between 1985 and 1991.

He began his studies in plastic arts and very quickly moved towards wood sculpture. 

He obtained a BT Technical Certificate, then a CAP and finally a DMA diploma in arts trades in wood sculpture.

Following his studies, he joined Parisian model and design workshops. The creation of products for advertising, design, architecture or even the cosmetic industry…

During almost 10 years, these numerous professional experiences allowed him to practice many techniques from manual trades, such as turning, milling, mechanical machining, molding, and of course sculpture with many materials…

In 2000 he leaves the Paris region for the Arcachon Basin.

It is from this moment that he begins to create his sculptures. In wood, in stone, in earth… engraving techniques too… His curiosity leads him to many horizons.

In 2001 he discovers a local association that offers painting and art history courses, he applies to animate sculpture workshops there… these courses still exist today...

He regularly animates modeling workshops on specific themes.

In parallel, he exhibits in art fairs to present and sell his work as an artist.

His profession today is to create pieces and transmit his passion for sculpture.
