Artwork location: France
This magnificent work of art is a bold and captivating wood sculpture that draws the eye with its slender form and refined execution. Carved from an elegantly polished piece of wood, the sculpture rises with a graceful asymmetry, suggesting both robustness and delicacy. The wood's natural finish highlights its subtle veins, providing visual depth and an organic connection to its surroundings. At the top of the sculpture, artistic cutouts evoke an organic pattern, perhaps a series of silhouettes evoking cellular or ecological forms. This creates a fascinating interplay between full and empty, inviting the viewer to contemplate the contrast between the artificial and the natural. On the side of the sculpture, a series of dark squares are inlaid, creating a texture that challenges and invites touch. This addition brings a visual and tactile dynamic, breaking with the softness of the smooth wood. Towards the base, a metal medallion is integrated, adding an intriguing focal point and juxtaposition between organic wood and industrial metal. The sculpture rests on a sturdy plinth, providing stability that accentuates its slender stature. This work brilliantly harmonizes elegance and boldness, and reflects the artisan's expertise in material selection and technical mastery. It is a tribute to the natural beauty of wood and a celebration of the interplay between art, nature and form.

Presentation
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."
