I am a sculptor. I am 49. I live in a small village near Grasse, on the French Riviera. Beside approx. 50 exhibitions in France and abroad, here are some important milestones in my artistic life.

My sculptures are mainly clay and glazes. Over the years, the ceramic overrode gradually other media such as wood, iron and stone. I believe that it is the infinity of possibilities which clay offers that better explains this evolution.

Once cooked and enamelled, my sculptures are mostly mounted on plates of steel which is, to me, a material of great sobriety and infinite nuances.
