Julie – Living in Ariège for 9 years, I develop my artistic activity with the help of photography, painting and ceramic sculpture. Adventurer in love with ruins, industrial wastelands and other unusual places invaded by nature, I walk around and find or create a setting to stage my sculptures: between Land art and Street Art…

 

My approach ???!!! I walk, I jump, I run and I jump… I stumble and crash… I get up and go again !!! I create as I live, I live as I create … driven by my passions, to the rhythm of my emotions …

 

Sculpture earth and other things … This is skipping school … taking roundabout paths.

 

 

Kevin – « First and foremost a wood and metal sculptor, I like to combine these materials with each other.
Mainly abstract, the figurative sometimes mixes with it.
These sculptures are born with the wire of my inspiration according to the wood or the metal which is presented to me, taking shape by following my intuition.
Woodturning also enriches my work.
