Bronzes The dog school €8,800.00 The little girl tells wolf stories to her very attentive dog (perhaps the wolf and the dog of LA FONTAINE). This sculpture is inspired by the recurring theme of portraits of children and their pets that started in the 18th century. Perhaps this is why the work is more detailed and realistic than usual. The sculpture is also exhibited at the Millet Museum... View
Bronzes Harmony in the night €2,900.00 Little girl who sings with her wolf in the moonlight in an intense mutual agreement. I created it thinking of the deep forests of the Morvan. View
Bronzes Chorus €7,700.00 A family of wolves, on an impulse which is both beautiful and communicative, ‘sing’ to the moon. With this sculpture I played on fullness and emptiness to create an overall composition which joins emotion and form. I went from a black grey patina on light grey backgrounds to a light brown patina on smoky black to soften the group. This animal sculpture... View
Bronzes Wolf and Little Girl or The Dream €4,200.00 The Natural History Museum of Lille asked me to create two sculptures for the LIAISONS VITALES exhibition in 2020. On the theme of "the wild child" this little girl in perfect harmony with the wolf was then born, forming a pendant to Mowgli, Romulus and Remus. She falls asleep confidently, in osmosis, lulled by the song of her wolf mother. “Nature is not... View
Bronzes Giraffe and her doll €5,900.00 During the Jean -Joseph Carriès exhibition at the Petit Palais, I was very touched by a terracotta “L'Infante” representing a little girl clutching her puppet to the point of breaking it, a fitting expression of the innocently destructive side from childhood. The idea of the theme of the little girl and her toy came back to me one evening and I modeled... View
Bronzes Very shy €2,200.00 The staging of a young, contemplative rhino, intimidated by three young giraffes. Tobacco patina, brass support with black/brown patina. First bronze at the Ghent Art Fair. View
Bronzes Column of dogs €32,000.00 This column of dogs could have been several meters high if I had wanted to represent all dog breeds! I was content to model mine and those that I regularly come across in my village. Astonished, they wonder what possessed the sculptor to put them in such a situation. In real life, they hunt, guard men and livestock, run on dog tracks, or even console with... Add to cart
Bronzes Couple on their knees €1,600.00 Here is the last available copy of this sculpture. I then worked a lot on the rhino/giraffe couple in a humorous way. I am very tall in the same way as the giraffe and, when I was younger, I was often subjected to the mocking remarks of men. On the other hand, in my sculptures, the rhinoceroses are small but admiring and envious of their slender... View
Museum acquisitions The problem with the wolf €6,000.00 The wolf is a fascinating animal that is very present in the imagination of young and old alike. In this work, I've tried to explore that imaginary world, away from the predator-victim trope. This animal sculpture, acquired by the Musée d'Histoire Naturelle de Lille (MHNL), will be presented as part of the next exhibition on the theme of the wolf,... View
Bronzes The Giantess or Gulliverte €4,800.00 Lilliputian rhinoceros climbing Gulliver. I added the title "Gullivert in homage to Anne Sylvestre and her beautiful eponymous song in which I recognize myself. View
Bronzes Girafe enceinte €19,000.00 As a child, I was already much bigger than the other children and “giraffe” was my nickname in the school playground. In fact, this resemblance pleased me. This peaceful animal has a lanky grace, airy and wild and with large soft eyes. It is one of the rare animals which dates back to prehistoric times and one with which we can identify emotionally....

Bronzes Giraffe with jewels €18,000.00 This young giraffe woman with a proud bearing has adorned herself with necklaces and bracelets to come to meet us, one might think. The rings encircling her neck represent for me the social pressure that she transcends with her elegance.Lady Georgiana Cavendish beautifully painted by Gainsborough said that men had left women only their toilets as a means...

The Studio Embarcation to Kythira Every new exhibition is an adventure. For the catalogue of the Musée de la Côte d’Opale, Christopher, the graphic designer, wanted the photographs taken on the beach in order to illustrate the title of the exhibition Bêtes à Musée, Sculptures in the Open Air. The photographic technique scared me and recreating an atmosphere around my sculptures was a real... View

Bronzes Giraffe and her greyhound €4,100.00 Curved sculpture. I took over from a theme used in fashion! But there's no haute couture dress, but a very fine harmony between a recurring character in my imagination and my whippet dog named Edha. Tawny patina View
Private acquisitions Giraffe amulet Sculpture created for the exhibition "We dress the fish well" in 2007 at the Château Musée de Boulogne sur mer. It is part of a collection of "amulets" presented in the archaeological showcases of the Museum on this occasion View
Clays The three Eves A mother carries her two daughters on her back. It’s up to everyone to imagine what they contemplate together, peacefully, in a beautiful visionary impulse. A better future for their sisters? I like this sentence from Jean Giraudoux: “Adam firmly believes that he was chased out of the earthly paradise. Eve is not sure at all, and acts, in any case, as if... View
Bronzes The three bronze Eves €44,000.00 This large stoneware piece was presented in 2014 as part of the exhibitions "MUSEE A CIEL OUVERT" in Saulieu, "EQUILIBRE" in the Cour d'Honneur of the Sorbonne- Panthéon and during a ‘Printemps de la Sculpture in Chantilly.. A collector friend commissioned me to cast a bronze. The foundryman applied a patina very close to the original savannah-colored... Add to cart
Bronzes Giraffe and her three daughters €5,900.00 I created this sculpture in memory of my impressions of a girl born in the 1950s. At that time the pater familias was all powerful and a certain feminine solidarity was then necessary to grow without too much damage. This sculpture could have been called the GYNECE (Greek term that has become generic for women's apartment, as opposed to the Andron for men... View
