About the artist

Born in 1959, originally from Brittany and now living in Normandy, I am a historian by training and a former headmaster of a secondary school. After making several documentaries on the history of art, I now devote myself fully to sculpture.

A minimalist and inhabited sculpture

My practice is based on the recovery of materials that carry memory — Caen stone, old tools, timber. These fragments of the past become the elements of a contemporary, sober and refined language.

Dialogue with time and gestures

Sculpting is about extending the gestures of artisans of the past. It is about creating a dialogue between geological, biological, and human time within a single work.

A quest for essential forms

I search for the right form, sometimes marked by tension or a flaw. Each piece is a passage between past and present, memory and intuition.
