Village is my first painted ceramic, and the first piece I've made a mould of. The original is not available anymore, but a bronze is already for sale. This village could be a Provence village for example, because of its setting up and all over a hill. It reminded me perhaps of the Provence santons of Christmas, when people use Provence style model houses and characters to people the Nativity scenes. But one can imagine many stories about this village, which looks, at first, sleepy and quiet, but could hide many passions. Too calm to be true could be another title in fact. Traditional southern european villages are too often the setting of vendettas, neighbour feuds and jealousy, crimes of passion and family competition. But for now, we'll pretend it is just a very quiet, picturesque and peaceful village striken only by a generous summer sun...

I am a French and Polish artist, born in Paris in 1972. Coming from a family of artists (my mother Julita is a sculptor, my sister Gabrielle a painter, my brother Pierre a music composer...) I've expressed myself in my childhood mainly through drawing. Then for many years I dropped art totally and went into studies and work, to realise a few years back I cannot live without creating. A peak time is my New York experience for a few month in 2008, where I briefly just plunged into creation, before coming back to what had become my normal everyday life... After that, this urge for creation has grown on me progressively until a recent making out in 2011, when returning from a very enriching experience as a plumber in Bangladesh slums, where I had spent about a year and a half... Quite lost at my return home, I can say I slowly came back to myself only through art. The action of sculpting was a highly restructuring experience to me.It rebuilt me and gave a new meaning to my life. Since then, I've been creating and considering myself as an artist. In the meantime I got married and am a father of adorable twin boys, born in 2016. With this parenthood experience my creation has necessarily evolved, I considered myself primarily as a sculptor, but with restricted time and access to my clay workshop in Touraine I had much frustration. Hence my latest sculpture projects with various materials including recyclables and rubbish, my recent return to drawing, my discovery of collage and also painting to a lesser extent. Today, another page will be turned with our installation mid 2017 in a new house in Saint Cloud, near Paris, with the possibility of having a workshop at home, and generally more space and more time dedicated to creation.
