About The Artwork

Rusted piece of steel : All my artwork is inspired by corroded boats,rusted walls, old industrial buildings, rundown factories and seascapes. I have a thing for rusty looks, old boats, old doors, old tools…. Is it because rust can make things more vulnerable ? For me corrosion on objects left by the weather is like time has cast its own shadow. I let pieces of steel sit outside so acid rain, air, snow and the sun slowly rust them as the weeks go by. Only when I like the results of this process, when the reddish and yellowish colors appear, when I see red, brown or orange flaking or pitting on the steel surface, do I intervene to stop it or interact with it. I then start to work on these rusty pieces of metal by sublimating the rustic appearance… knowing that the beauty of nature won’t never be matched. I hope these artworks bring you as much emotions as it did to me when I created them.

Shipping & Returns

Delivery Time:Typically 5-7 business days for domestic shipments, 10-14 business days for international shipments.

My works are the result of a search about the effect of rust, its red-brown deposits on metal, exposed to air and humidity. That which begins by a dialogue between nature and steel becomes a conversation between three, because then I intervene in trying to accelerate or stop the process. These works over the course of many weeks, even months are ready when the resulting translation of the emotions of my travels are felt and are notably seen (observed) in it's alteration of colors, paints and materials that are caused by nature. Born and raised in Brittany, I am based in Belgium and I carry in myself the color of "GLAZ", that undefinable color from Brittany, that changes between blue, green and grey...I am steeped in it.
