Stone and wood sculptor. I regularly exhibit my own creations in different artistic events mainly across France and Germany, but also in other locations. In parallel to my main artistic work, I organize sculpture courses and artistic events for the general public on demand and from my own initiative. Finally, I produce order-based sculptures, taking into account the client’s wishes and demands.
