Patrick Villas was born in 1961, and today he lives and works in Antwerp.
He is a sculptor and, passionate by the animal world, he represents it under all its possible forms, being particularly fond of cats.
In order to understand them and the way they move, he spends a lot of time observing them in zoos.
The sculptor doesn't miss any detail, the animal's posture is always dynamic, and their elegance and noble looks are perfectly rendered for the viewer's experience and enjoyment.
His sculptures, beige or brown, seem like they are clay sculptures - but they are in fact fleshed out of bronze. Villas honors the nature of his subject by working this medium in a rough, textured way.
