Sculpture and Circular Economy:

Searching for coherence and constantly concerned by my environmental impact, I carve my sculptures in blocks of marble, granite and alabaster destined to be dumped. I often carve in old tombstones, forgotten stones or "waste'" blocks. Of course, this requires a very specific know-how, as these stones have suffered from time, knocks and frost... but it's an ethical, technical and aesthetic choice. # REUSE-REDUCE-RECYCLE

Heart-Body... 2021

Alabaster (sculpture carved in a block called waste (due to its clefts) but so beautiful when you look at it closely

Alabaster mobile sculpture. Originally a block weighing more than 120 kilos, a lot of slag and a terrible fissure. Some sort of an imbalance inside the stone let me dream a rotation axis, dream a mobile sculpture, as if it was in a double balance. .
Should I use it to express the ambivalence in relationships, the back and forth between emotions, the strength of one versus the strength of the other, alternating energies. Behind the symbiosis between these two beings beats a heart, anatomically constructed. And then there's the veine, so strong and so subtle at a time.
When the sculpture stands, its feminine side dominate, open, looking up, full of energy, and behind the two embracing bodies we can perceive the shape of a heart.
When it lies down, the masculine side takes over, in an emotion turned inwards, somehow protective and wrapping around.
Heart hidden in the intimacy of the vein, stone and sculpture become one and only.
