Photograph of a marble work from classical Greece unearthed during the construction of the Folegandros Monastery in the 17th century.
"Born in 1965 in Paris, I was far from suspecting that I would one day become a sculptor. But everything that makes up a being forges in advance the paths, the avenues, the roads by which everything seeks to express itself in him, through him.
It is the stones that hold and offer the finished work. I merely accompany this metamorphosis from the raw to the visible. The emotion, if it exists, belongs to another perspective, and that is as it should be.
Alabaster, besides being soft, has another unique characteristic: its translucency. As a result, all the subjects that emerge from it are imbued with the ambient light of the world, this silent treasure.
Archetypes and symbols populate my bestiary. Animals, idols, books, keys, anchors... I sometimes wonder with whom they will live... I love their freedom and independence.
