Description

This captivating metal sculpture depicts a slender, dynamic silhouette rising gracefully from a cylindrical base. The finely cut metal sheets form a delicate interweaving reminiscent of a human figure. The elegant arrangement of the elements creates a fluid movement, like a dance frozen in time. Variations in metallic hues add visual depth, playing with light to evoke an illusion of life and movement. This work is distinguished by the perfect harmony between form and material, transforming a complex assemblage into a refined, organic entity. Each angle offers a new perspective, inviting the viewer to contemplate the subtle craftsmanship and the artist's mastery in manipulating metal to express lightness and fluidity. A piece where art and nature seem to merge.

Presentation

Nicolas Desbons was born in 1966, he is an art locksmith and sculptor.

After studing Industrial Design in San Francisco, Nicolas Desbons returned to France where he decided to open his own studio to work with steel. He currently lives and works near Paris.

His work is mainly based on locksmithery (cold working of metal, assembly by welding or screwing) he regularly practices, as well, ironworking (working in the forge, when his creations require it).

Combining different traditional techniques, Nicolas Desbons however seeks to innovate and diverts the codes to create new aesthetic appearances. In order to enrich his pieces, he does not hesitate to combine materials and introduce for example fiberglass, glass, or ceramics and metal.

The artist who calls himself a metal designer works mostly on command.
