This captivating work of art is distinguished by its complexity and bold aesthetics. The sculpture features a vertical structure, dominated by sinuous and intertwined relief patterns, evoking the fluidity and dynamics of movement. Made of dark material, probably metal, it reflects exceptional technical mastery, combining elegant lines and refined textures. The intertwining patterns are reminiscent of waves or feathers, creating an illusion of continuous and organic movement. Two distinct, vertical cuts, which seem to illuminate the piece, add a dimension of contrast and depth, irresistibly drawing the viewer's gaze. These cuts provide not only a visual contrast, but also a reflection on the interplay between light and shadow, a central element of this work. The solid base anchors the sculpture, giving an impression of stability despite the complexity and apparent fluidity of the overall pattern. The careful finishing and meticulous attention to detail are evidence of exceptional craftsmanship. The uniqueness of this piece lies in its ability to capture a sense of both movement and stability, light and darkness, creating a harmonious tension that never fails to fascinate and intrigue. This work is a perfect illustration of contemporary art, where each element is carefully designed to provoke reflection and admiration.
My universe is deeply inspired by the Neolithic world, the large-scale representations of the first traces of man, the dolmens, the menhir statues or the imposing cairns. Who are these builders, with what techniques and knowledge were they able to create these forms? It is the whole free field left by silence to these questions that is a source of inspiration, dialogue, research. And closer to us, the charm and spirituality of the temples of the 11th and 12th century of Japan.
My sculptures form a constellation of points, like a taut arc that connects us to these unfathomable origins, to nature, to space.
"I like to let myself be guided by impulses. The sculpture is built as I go along. I always try to create transparency, light effects by playing with the black of the wood licked by the flame, the orange gradients of the Douglas pine, the silver reflections of the steel.
Next to my studio, I have created a space of truth. The sculptures thus arranged must give me emotions, sensations, like a magnetic current."
