[ SCULPTURE COLLECTION ]
Drowing — five heads 2020– · sculpture · #3dprinting #blender

Drowing of 5 heads is a sculpture collection in which I found my voice in white colour and material. The process started in 2020 by making them through 3D Blender sculpting for modelisation — then I print them, coat them in plaster, and polish them by hand.

I'm a multidisciplinary creative artist — visual & digital artist, filmmaker and storyteller based in Paris. M.A. in Animation Directing, B.A. in Graphic Design. I make films, sculptures and digital worlds that begin as still, white surfaces and reveal their colors when you get close.
