About the Artist

SYMBOLIC DESIGN: Intuitive search for the optimal design allows one to transform objects previously frozen in their traditional shape due to lack of technical means and the power of habitual patterns. This new type of design is characterised by double three dimensional curves and “hyperforms” so purely aesthetic entitles can be intimately intermingled with technology in a relation similar to love. Generally speaking, the design is dressed in technology as a decoration. Here Art becomes the creator in its mythical meaning, linked to the technology by its absolute and sacred origin.

MYTHICAL GUITAR DAPHNE

1981
98 x 40 x 12cm

The first guitar was constructed by Appolo after a love affair with the beautiful nymph Daphne at the memory of her sensual body.

ARCHITECTURAL SPEAKER SYSTEM

2001
30 x 30 x 52

Amazon is a work inspired by the goddess of moon. It is an artistic vision and concretisation of the divine. Speakers are protected by a moulded mask permeable to the sound. Its canonical face is universal in all civilizations around the world while its silkscreen printed cover can adapt that mask to different countries and cultures.

EVE HOT FIDELITY SYSTEM

2001
Stone
500 x 500 x 140

Power and balance on tips of the breasts: Eve Hot Fidelity System is an erotic vision of the genesis where pleasure and festivity permeates the world on endless recreation. The Dionysos Project consits in a super-marketing exhibition of that philosophic concept : this work EVE HFS, the mother of humanity, can be used form promotion of the Amazon product thanks to her media personality and her aesthetic. So art and technology can co-exist in absolute harmony for durable development of the humanity. Download and look at that only video on my website.

APPLE OR PEACH SPEAKER SYSTEM

2000
12 x 12 x 12

The cube is the best solution for the miniaturization but the apple is an universal and sensual fruit, so the speaker becomes a luxury good ideal for classical or modern interiors according to the woman acceptance factor

MANTARAYA Submarine Wing

1992
82 x 42 x 12

I have drawn my inspiration from the Mantiskate in order to design MANTARAYA a novel type of underwater thruster.MANTARAYA is a performance underwater device using a reaction propulsion concept based on to the separation of a frontal flow of water in two ways . So the diver can stay in the wake of that device without pointless efforts: MANTARAYA can enable persons with motor disability to fulfil their potential in submarine activities.

SEA SPIRIT

1998
82 x 42 x 6

SEA SPIRIT is the exact copy of the machine’s body where Art and Technique closely merge That symbolic mural lamp emits a subtle mixture of wave forms relaxing the body, and spiritual radiance in order to achieve calm consciousness.

LILITH SENSITIVE SCULPTURE

2005
Carbon-metal
50 x 50 x 150

In the Occident the apple is the fruit of the sin but in 0rient the peach allows anybody to reach heaven…. LILITH High Infidelity System is the antithesis of EVE Hot Fidelity ystem.That work is a creative sound system using the "Apple or Peach" speaker. You can control the sound and the light in using a direct sensitive contact with the female sculpture (On the right of the photography).

VENUS desire

2006
Composite
70x45x35

VENUS Desire is a new and only concept art : a Draught beer system in form of a sensitive sculpture which talks when you touch lightly her back . All figurative expression like “Whaoo! it’s my round!!” could be recorded in the memory of that enticing sculpture. Electronic control, available in all colours

Future shows
MANTARAYA Project:
Submarine world symbolizes the universal origin of human dreams. The sun dies every evening in the ocean and embodies in the black sun, the osiers shade, the mantis Kate. That corresponds to the rebirth of both sound and light into the black and silent space. The diver with a symbolic hyperform like MANTARAYA can take up a modelling mermaid in order to achieve a musical synchronised ballet with dolphins.
Dionysos project consists in the shooting a symbolic underwater film in order to demonstrate that the unification of Art and Technique will be a solution for the humanity according to the Cretan legendary of the water primordial transfiguration, where dolphins become the spiritual mediators of the human behind.
