Born in 1955 in Nice, [he worked] in his father’s workshop [in] gilt, silver and bronze restoration and [as a] goldsmith.

After years [of] practical and technical depth to rehabilitate and reconstruct the objects, he enlisted an artistic approach. The ornament torn from its original medium then forms the structure of his sculptures.

His research [is] inspired [by] works of the Renaissance; one of his favorite themes is that of the classic layouts own vanities.

About

I design video games for a living, write fiction, political theory and poetry for personal amusement, and train regularly in Western European 16th century swordwork. On frequent occasion I have been known to hunt for and explore abandoned graveyards, train tunnels and other interesting places wherever I may find them, but there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that I am preparing to set off a zombie apocalypse. Nothing that will stand up in court, at least. I use paranthesis with distressing frequency, have a deep passion for history, anthropology and sociological theory, and really, really, really hate mayonnaise. But I wash my hands after the writing. Promise.
