First, the theme "Open/closed" made me think of a sardine can. And I have tried to find a continuity with my work. I loved that!
I am a woodturner, a craftsman.
Constantly in search of simplicity, my creative work is marked by tight curves, simple shapes, and subtle textures. I am listening for the emotion provoked by the simple curves that daily nurture my eyes. I really believe that a curve IS an emotion.
My imagination is full of rope textures, organic shapes, pieces sometimes carved, often turned. My work is speaking about the tree. That’s why I like the distortion of green wood after drying, a sort of second life. I can expect it but I can’t master this movement. It fascinates me.
My hand does the main work, of course, but first comes the tree...its history and when the sap was still running through its veins.
