sculptures
My sculptures are all about the human being and being human.
Humans in a world free of codes, free of conventions,
free of standards, free of constraints.
Humans born with a pure joy for life.
The figures symbolise people
sharing joy, wonder or
just a moment in time.
Their shapes are loose,
organic versions of people.
Their anatomy is
distinct, free from ideals,
soft and approachable.
Their presence
attracts, pulls in, invites to come closer,
to touch.
I hope they convey a sense of belonging,
trigger some memories,
preferably good ones.
my motif
What makes humans such a particular animal ?
How are we different from other animal species ?
Is what I ask myself very often.
When I work I let my hands create,
create spontaneous forms,
putting my head on hold.
Later I will use my head,
to materialise what my hands have created
as closely as possible.
Finding a balance of the essential forms,
erasing some but not too much,
going through an internal fight of
keeping the initial energy, vitality and spontaneity
and accepting their non conformity.
