Great sokatira

€4,300.00

I have returned to this theme several times. “Sokatira” means “tug of war” in Basque. These “tusk ropes” allow me to play on compositions while extending and you just have to watch baby elephants play to realize that they could participate in Basque games. Warm brown patina with lighter backgrounds

Together

€5,800.00

Last winter, a friend's little girl told her school friends that an elephant was living in her garage. It would soon accompany her to school when the weather cooperated, as elephants are very sensitive to the cold. I brought her story to life. It's a piece full of movement, with the child holding her companion's trunk to take it for a walk. Slate- gray...

Playing leapfrog

€2,800.00

I took up the theme of “the elephant jumps!” » in smaller format at the request of a collector. I sometimes have the feeling in life that I am jumping obstacles like this baby elephant under the benevolent gaze of its father or mother who encourages it. This very dynamic sculpture, a copy of which is on my desk, gives me courage in the morning! A light...

Louise at the zoo, version 2

€5,800.00

This confrontation between the powerful animal from prehistoric times and the small, fragile but fearless human remains a favourite theme for me.It's an image that works in many people's imaginations. How can we understand this? Is it the fascination that the animal world holds for us, both close and mysterious in our 'civilised' eyes?Our ancestors,...

Elephant boat

€10,500.00

Here is the bronze taken from the original clay created for the exhibition “BETES A MUSEE”. A crowd of elephants facing the sea on a fragile boat. Some spontaneously call this sculpture the Ark, a Noah's Ark which would house only elephants. Why not ? “To gain height, it is sometimes necessary to be able to count on others and, in a place largely devoted...

Bronzes

On the trunk

€9,200.00

This large sculpture joins the “Elephant and little girl” series in which they exchange glances. It is a very readable piece and imposes itself by a circle composition. The slate gray patina enhances the texture of the animal's skin.

The visit

€2,400.00

This sculpture is a revisitation of the universal bear/woman myth : At the back, a little girl hibernates with her bear companion. At the front, the girls observe a second bear, whom they are about to welcome as an equal guest. Everyone can make the rest of the story their own. The visit is a work of art with everal readings. During my trip to Tahiti, I...

Elephants entwined

€1,700.00

Small sculpture full of roundness and tenderness. “Ah, the joys of love!” is the quote from JEAN DE LA FONTAINE that came to mind while modeling this sculpture. But I don’t add, like him, “Goodbye caution!” » because my elephants are tenderly embraced forever, bronze obliges! From the initial sketch I softened the tusks to enhance their gentleness ....

Bear and his two cubs

€2,800.00

A bear trains his two cubs in acrobatic postures, just as I used to play "circus" with my cousins as a child. These were great moments when we imagined ourselves taking immeasurable risks in front of an amazed audience. I didn't make a career in the circus, and far be it from me to represent my bears on a ring, prisoners of trainers! They're having the...

The care that elephant groups take in the education and protection of baby elephants is well known. This matriarch avoids the fall of her little one with tenderness and humor. Everything that should govern the education of our little ones ! The position of the elephants is reinforced by the shape of the promontory which evokes a bit of a wave. A sculpture...

Bear with three fish

€2,700.00

Well placed on its hind legs, this bear cub looking towards the sky thanks mother nature for having allowed him to do such good fishing. If this lasts, salmon would be on the verge of extinction!! It is a sculpture that highlights an expression of gratitude and hope. The slightly shimmering warm brown patina, brings out the green of the fish.

Bronzes

New perched

€1,700.00

A warm brown patina for this small, very slender version of the acrobatic elephants. The little one plays with the law of gravity, its paw balancing on the carrier's trunk. They look into each other's eyes, in joyful complicity.

A king’s feast

€2,850.00

The bear cub is very happy to have made such a good catch, the fish a little less so, but that's life! We all depend on the food chain. So here's a small-format sculpture on the "bear and fish" theme, which I always take up with great pleasure. The warm brown patina of the bear contrasts with the green hue of the fish, obtained with ferric nitrate.

Bronzes

Two children and a baby elephant

Variation of the bear and the cub I started from the theme of learning to create this very designed bronze. Its rounded shapes invite caressing! The protagonists look into each other's eyes in a mirror effect, the little one saying to himself “when I grow up”, and the big one” when I was little”, in a never ending game of generations. Brown patina with...

Four pizzlys

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!
