" LIVING THE WORLD

My practice is diversified but focused primarily on sculpture, assemblage, installation. I use materials "small" branches, boards, clothing, fabrics, objects, most often found ... Bundles, packages, accessories are placed on makeshift skateboards.
Contemporary Vanities, these pieces evoke the precariousness, the ephemeral nature of life, migration ...

Wrap, wrap, tie, sew, sculpt it.

J'habille branches; layers overlap, the parts made crowded ...

Le mystérieux et passionnant roman de Claudie Galley , Dans l'or du temps , titre son titre  d'une formule d'André Breton in le Manifeste du Surréalisme- à connotation alchimique  -et s'inspire de la rencontre de celui-ci avec la civilisation Hopi.
