Cédric Verdure
Born in Cherbourg in 1978,
Lives and works in Nantes since 2006.

Self-taught in art and fascinated multidisciplinary artist. Atypical, having never frequented the benches of schools of art, he parades a vital need to create.
" To create dream, to immortalize memories, to wake sensations, this is why I work; the sculpture is a way to express myself and to express the place that takes the space in us and around us " he explains ardently.

After a scientific school programme he turns to a formation in drawing in architecture courses, where he discovers the computer graphics, the perspectives and the realization of models. At the same time, he starts modelling, sculpting (on wood, tufeau) and painting.

But, it is the idea of tension and strength, structure and lightness which then holds all his attention, between art and architecture.
To become a sculptor in the public place and to work the volume, from accessible materials, susceptible to thwart the constraints of the gravity, here is the challenge!
