Educated as carrossier, a specialist in shaping sheet metal with hand tools, I have 15 years of work experience in both France and Germany. Studying the bachelor program Metallgestaltning för offentlig konst at HDK / Steneby in Sweden allowed me to fully focus on the development of my artistic skills.
Nowadays, I am working as a freelance artist and mainly create metal sculptures for public spaces. The combination of my education and my work experience gives me the understanding and ability to actually realise my ideas; the larger the sculptures the better.
