Art and Magnetism

On the path that led me to discover the pleasure of sculpture, sharing this passion with my friends, an encounter changed my life and changed my approach to the relationship to the object that we produce by sculpting. This person, who introduced me to REIKI, seeing my qualities for bringing out a chosen shape from a raw block, suggested that I could explore this new conception of life by making clocks. Thus I saw there a way to combine the practice of hands to bring a better being for people, and the practice of hands that make objects emerge from the matter that could enlighten people, then giving an esoteric sense to my manual practice. Combining magnetism and art, I therefore turned to an expression that goes beyond aesthetics and emotion. The object produced then takes on a deeper meaning while becoming practical and usual.
