About The Artwork

Inspired by the Erika boat that dumped industrial waste on the Breton coasts, this sculpture raises the recurring problem of reprocessing waste, whether radioactive or not, and brings us face to face with our responsibilities as consumers. After the shipwreck of the oil tanker Erika, a sea lion cleans up.

Direct carving, a traditional technique for creating three-dimensional shapes, allows for contemporary figurative expression. Coming from the school of Fine Arts of Avignon, I create large size sculptures. My work is a staging where forms replace words. My sculptures are the interpretation of my reflections on society and human behavior. My preferred materials are wood and snow. I am fond of sculpture symposia where free and direct expression gives rise to unique artistic performances. The interest of the bronze is to retranscribe the work and the material of the wood from the casting of the sculptures. It is a noble, stable and perennial material. I realize myself the casts and waxes which are then cast into bronze.
