Bronzes Benbezela €5,500.00 « Bembeleza » means “tickle” in swahili, in KENYA. It's a animal sculpture that I wanted to be joyful and tender, the game between an adult and their child. I see myself with one of my grandchildren...Animal sculpture for all the parents and grandparents of the world!!! View
Bronzes A bear named Sisyphus €3,800.00 The rock I put down first turned into a fish.To each his own representation of the myth. For the bear, it's fishing and hunting to ensure its survival without asking philosophical questions, a Sisyphus who ignores himself. This sculpture is part of "the bear/fish" series that I continue to work on. View
Bronzes The Swing €4,500.00 “The pendulum is thrown,Our absent minded fellow, staggered, stretched out his arms, and fell.He broke his nose, and everyone laughed." Jean-Pierre Claris de Florian I reinvented the fable with this elephant bronze. My baby elephants are under the supervision of a caring adult; They don't fall and have fun. Part of the series of acrobatic elephants statues. View
Bronzes Malanka €6,800.00 Malanka is a traditional Ukrainian folk holiday.Both parents are the pillars around which children revolve. I used a warm, brown patina with lighter backgrounds. When modeling this sculpture, I thought of the children under the bombs, wishing them a better future. View
Bronzes From trunk to trunk €5,800.00 An emblematic theme that I definitely cannot leave! Rounded shapes, erect trunk supporting a baby in balance, smiles, everything contributes to optimism! A beautiful earthen patina on red-brown backgrounds created by Yves Cabasson magnifies the all peace. View
Bronzes The stronger of the two €5,200.00 A revival on the “Little Girl and the Bull” sculptureI have reinforced the relation of “game-opposition” with the complicit expression of the bull. View
Bronzes Big Mahout €9,400.00 A mahout without a goad but whose enthusiastic trunk points the way! It is a sculpture in motion, whose grey patina with lighter backgrounds reinforces the presence.Presented at Antica Namur 2020 View
Bronzes Big Quickly €8,800.00 I don’t know where this bear is going so quickly……Perhaps he has just learned of the arrival of the salmon in the Kamchatka Rivers! View
Bronzes Wild boar and its cubs €11,500.00 Wild BoarWe walk, they see us, invisible presences to our senses as city dwellers. Just maybe we hear a crackling sound, or we see their traces where they have turned and rooted through the earth on the edges of the forest paths. However, I remember four adorable young boars that I saw as they played, carefree, around the Neuville pond. Armed members of... View
Bronzes Five Young Ladies €3,900.00 Five young ladies, friends or sisters, tenderly entwined chatting together. I have played on the sharing of their glances to animate the group.

Bronzes Dressage €16,000.00 Large, very graphic sculpture made at the Chapon art foundry. The little rider on the sidesaddle on the highest perched horse is confident. The eyes of the horses meet.

Bronzes Tender Games €7,500.00 Acrobatic games between “father-mother” and child. One of my favorite sculptures on which I worked a lot on the shape of the trunks which delicately touch each other. A variation of acrobatic elephants with knowing looks. Silver nitrate patina View
Bronzes Four pizzlys €11,200.00 To think outside the box, I tackled pizzlys, the fruit of an amorous encounter between Grizzly Bears and Polar Bears. “Coffee with milk...” bears. The song "Mélangez-vous" by Pierre Perret, which should be part of the school repertoire, is not far off the mark. Bears are not racist and they try to see further by perching on top of each other! View
Bronzes From Hump to Hump €8,500.00 A little girl jumps from one hump of a camel to another. I consciously played with the exaggeration of the proportions between the two protagonists of the scene: the hieratic and majestic animal thus evokes a landscape, the color of desert sand, an elliptical statement of sorts! View
Bronzes The waltz €12,000.00 Two elephants waltz lightly, their“leaf” ears in the wind. I call them internally Baucis and Philémon as I call the hornbeam with two intertwined, “braced” trunks in my garden. Perhaps Zeus, who transformed these two old people in love into a tree, visited my studio, but I don't really believe in this honor! The Lalanne’s sculptures also often mixed... 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.

Private acquisitions The favorite of both A theme that I have often taken up, children and elephants pushing, pulling. The two little girls want to appropriate the same elephant who does not want to choose his playmate and is having fun with the situation. "Sophie Verger brings back images buried in our childhood memories and, beyond looking at what brings us so close to animals, invites us to... View
