Artist's Statement
Within the past ten years, I have modelled and carved a great number of characters. They were either outstanding beings (Travers saints, Galerie Optica, Montréal, 1988), despots, ministers or other representatives of earthly power (Assis soient-ils, Musée d'art de Joliette, Québec, 1992), kings and biblical prophets (Voix et pas, Musée des religions, Nicolet, Québec, 1994), models of accomplished women, wise, militant or mother (Femmes, corps et âme, Musée de la civilisation, Québec, 1996), and finally, a series of mesopotamian and precolombian ancestors, which I sculpted for the simple pleasure of meeting them (Petite humanité, 1999).
