Sculptor in stone and glass. Born in Paris, Montparnasse quarter, grew up in the creative environment of the Parisian fashion. Already at young age interested in geology he specialises in mineralogy and crystallography. He spends ten years on crystal research in the mountain chains of the Alps. He masters precise and decorative stone and crystal cutting. From 1979 on he establishes his workshop and laboratory in the South of France, in Cordes sur Ciel, in the Tarn region. In 1994 he focuses on the creation of more important sculptures, related to abstract decorative art: this constitutes the first E.A.L collection – Earth – Air – Light. In 2000 he adds his “Mineral” collection and in 2001 he inaugurates the “Parallel” and “Arrow” collections with hanging sculptures. Member of the French Art and Literature Society.
