Bear and his two cubs

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...

Drum Shaman Bear

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...

Each his turn 2

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...

Father and Daughter

Father and Daughter 2

Bronzes

Father and Daughter

The memory of being happily seated on the shoulders of a father, a hero in the eyes of this little girl. Little by little life will change this image. I wanted to fix this moment of perfect harmony.

Bronzes

Lion and two cubs

I created this sculpture to order (1/8) and then decided to release all the copies. The composition worked perfectly : a powerful lion with an abundant mane, tenderized by his two cubs. For the cubs, I chose to take up the theme of columns, stacks of animals, adapted to allow the boldest cub to rise to the father's level! A rich tawny patina is an obvious...

Malanka

Malanka 2

Bronzes

Malanka

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.

Bronze sculpture On the savannah, bronze animal sculpture by Sophie Verger 2

Bronzes

On the savannah

A matriarch walks through the savannah, leading her two baby elephants, one enthusiastic, the other a little lazy. It's just one of the many touching scenes we see in Africa, in this case “embodied” in bronze!

Bronze sculpture Prehistory, bear animal statue and Laussel Venus

Bronze sculpture Prehistory, bear animal statue and Laussel Venus 2

Bronzes

Prehistory

I exaggerated the proportions of VENUS DE LAUSSEL A LA CORNE a little to tell a story of aesthetic bears. The artist of the time is no longer there to contest this appropriation! 25,000 years ago, let our imagination run wild, bears discovered art in a cave in the Dordogne and the feminine beauty of that time. No wonder myths and legends from all over the...

Bronzes

Rhinoceros and his rider

Little girls dream of riding unicorns, but, proof provided by this sculpture, rhinos too. Fragility and brute force united in the same contemplation. This very "drown" sculpture is magnified by a slate gray patina.

Six éléphants et une fille

ELEPHANT COLUMN – Raw clay This sculpture was created during the 30th anniversary event of the PLATINI gallery in October 2024 in Veyrier du Lac, during a very beautiful event. I am planning a bronze release of this piece for ARTUP GRENOBLE in May 2025. Missing from the photo is a small trainer perched on the carrier's trunk. I will be able to present the...

Bronzes

The lovers

The image of these lovers comes to my mind frequently. I have done several studies of it in different formats, including this one. A couple of bears who love each other sitting on a bench or a rock, may be a vague childhood memory of lovers of Peynet….

A revival on the “Little Girl and the Bull” sculptureI have reinforced the relation of “game-opposition” with the complicit expression of the bull.

The Tightrope walkers

Two baby elephants play "balance" on a pole, in harmony with the largest of the three. I sought to create a composition full of curves, a gentle dynamic to express harmony and joy. Slate gray patina

Together

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...

Walk

Elephants continually migrate in search of food. This father (or mother) supports with delicacy and tenderness the youngest in this daily walk essential to the survival of the species. The tallest one follows obediently. I like working on these family images, dream reflections of our human families. For this moving sculpture, I chose a slate gray patina...
