Each his turn

EACH HIS TURN could be a metaphor for the role of parents: helping their children take flight one after the other. And it’s not that simple, sometimes even quite acrobatic. This matriarch or patriarch joyfully helps her baby elephants to see further, higher !! I created a very rounded composition with a vanishing line, the baby elephant on the trunk which...

Big horn to horn

€30,331.75

The original bronze clay was presented for the first time in the remarkable garden of the Tool Museum at WIT DIT JOLI VILLAGE. The first bronze edition is now exhibited in the park of Château De Luynes, in the company of the BIG ACROBATS. It is an animal sculpture all in a circle punctuated by the play of horns, horns that poachers will not come and cut!...

Bears column with three balloons

€12,796.21

These three balancing bears complicated their act by juggling balloons. They are very focused because as in life they depend on each other not to fall the red of the balloons contrasts with a rich brown patina. I asked my young intern, Jackob, to write a few lines on this sculpture. Here they are : In front of these three bears, we feel like we are part...

Together

€5,497.63

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...

Balancing on the ice floe

€6,824.64

I returned to the theme of the polar bear with his little one to this time finalize this acrobatic “parent-child” relationship in bronze. The teddy bear humorously punctuates this sculpture in a very pure way. I don't know if Paul Emile Victor would have liked my work but, in any case, I thought of him when modeling this piece. A nod to Apoutsiak who...

Drum Shaman Bear

€4,928.91

I discovered at the flea market a very beautiful old photo of a Central Asian shaman wearing a bear skin, the animal's head covering his skull. I also remember a scene from a western by the Coen brothers “TRUE GRIT” in which we see a healer on horseback covered in bear skin emerge from a dark forest, a rather exceptional scene. These representations made...

Giraffe and her three daughters

€5,592.42

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...

Bear in Kamchatka

€5,592.42

A revisited version of FISHING IN KAMCHATKA, this sculpture tells an additional story. KAMCHATKA is the ARCADIA of bears, as the salmon resource is inexhaustible there. A fisch escapes : no big deal, the fisherman looks at the fugitive with amusement. He returns home with a determined step to feed his family, like the bear MARTIN of the fairy tales. A nod...

Elephant boat

€9,952.61

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

€8,720.38

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 dog school

€8,341.23

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...

The nurses

€7,488.15

Little girls dream of taking care of animals, why not young hippopotamuses ? The curves of this mother are perfect for the kids to play together in complete safety. The matriarch is watching ! Sculpture all in roundness and softness. Silver nitrate patina "Animals remember. It's a very old story, maybe a myth or maybe not, when the earth was a garden...

Not too fast

€7,488.15

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...

Surfing in the Falklands

€5,592.42

In the Falkland Islands, penguins surf, so nothing surprising in this sculpture, just perhaps the development (for them and for me) of a new figure that an animal photographer has not yet captured. For my part, I love the "butler" side of these animals with their clumsy gait which contrasts with their elegance in the water. This sculpture can be seen at...

Malanka

€6,445.50

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.

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...

Four pizzlys

€10,616.11

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!

Dressage

€15,165.88

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. Perhaps they wonder about their ability to jointly maintain the balance ? “Because Sophie’s companions are rarely alone and because their ability to establish harmonious and playful...

From trunk to trunk

€5,497.63

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.

Wild boar and its cubs

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...
