Portrait

Dominique offers his numerous personal productions and also works on commission. He is present at the Galerie du Canal in Limoges. His pieces constitute a varied range of copperware creations: vases and containers, jewellery, religious objects, wall decorations, outdoor objects…

"I'm not sure I have a passion, or even that I want one. I like taking a piece of flat metal and turning it into an object, bending, twisting, changing the surface texture. All of that pleases me greatly."

His work comes from the desire to make, an idea, a drawing and his hands guide him. He draws from all fields: archaeology, architecture, painting and the decorative arts. What he likes best is to feel independent and to work with his hands.
