Artwork location: France

This sculpture belongs to the group of works in which the line becomes both volume and movement. Here, forged steel is no longer a support but a gesture: the elements bend, intersect, rise and hold one another, forming a structure that is at once dense and open.

The volume emerges through successive tensions. Each curve seems to have been taken at the very moment when the material hesitates between resistance and suppleness. The piece retains the memory of this physical negotiation: it is the trace of a movement, of a push, of a shift. The surface, subtly patinated with variations in tone, carries the duration of the process, the heat, and the energy of touch.

The form is neither stable nor chaotic; it holds itself in a balance that appears always in the act of becoming. It suggests an internal circulation, an organic organization, almost a breathing structure. It is no longer a matter of shelter or architecture, but of a living space that generates itself.

This work affirms sculpture as a field of forces. It does not represent; it reveals the direct relationship between body, matter, and space. It is the moment in which thought takes form by confronting the resistance of metal.

Presentation

Lives and works in Chantilly.
He devoted himself entirely to sculpture in the early 1990s and was quickly noticed by the art world. Having had access since childhood to the worlds of metal and wood through his two grandfathers, Etienne Jacobée chose steel as his primary material. Familiar and expressive, he explores its full potential with freedom — moving from solid to void, from vertical constructions to horizontal stretches, from pure form to improbable assemblages, from smooth to textured surfaces, from strict geometric cuts to stylized welded segments.

In a constant state of exploration, the artist refuses to be confined to a single style — he also works with plaster and wood — yet acknowledges certain artistic lineages: Henri Laurens, Eduardo Chillida, Dominique Labauvie. In a language that remains stripped-down yet diverse, his work can evoke tribal art, the human body, or a poetic resonance. Jacobée’s sculptures invite touch — they are alive. He sometimes coats them with earth, allowing lichens to develop naturally and create unique surface textures. More recently, color has taken on a significant role through the use of paint and pigment.

Since 2019, musicians, composers, filmmakers, art critics, writers, and dancers have been invited into his studio among the sculptures to expand the experience of dialogue and reflection.

His work was featured in ’s 2015 special issue on contemporary sculpture, which also devoted a portrait to him in 2016. Several insightful articles by Emmanuel Daydé have also appeared in in 2016, 2018, and 2021.
