CHRISTOPHE RIBEREAU GAYON

CHRISTOPHE RIBEREAU GAYON

It was by chance that one day I came into contact with clay: it was like an electric shock, a grounding, a valve opened wide, exploring without limit the twists and turns of the human soul.

The power of clay is to imprint the invisible, the unconscious, a power strengthened by the fire test of firing, which fixes the evanescent once and for all.

This powerful bond that unites me with clay transmits, through the luminous channel of inspiration, images that imbue the spirit with a universal language.

It remains "MY" material, and always serves as the basis for the creation of my sculptures, whether they remain in terracotta or are transformed into bronze, plaster or resin.

And this is as true for my personal creations as it is for my exploration of fields such as cinema and comics.
