Description

A virtuoso artist, Claire Crétu transmits emotions through her sculptures that overwhelm the viewer.

His animal sculptures are, for the most part, inspired by African animals. The artist, through the magic of his creation, manages in his sculptures to give an impression of life and movement to animals, symbols of freedom.

His creations envelop us in serenity and tenderness, revealing our sensitive part in each of us. In our current world, where most wild animals are endangered, his art is a touching way to raise awareness about this endangered animal beauty.

To express her creation, Claire Crétu said:
“No matter what we say or try to say, the essential thing is beyond words. My ambition is to share an emotion, a dream, a moment…
Far from the obvious, I am looking for another language. »

The weight of this snow leopard is approximately 9 kg. It was made by Claire Crétu at the Fonderie Chapon. It is the 4th proof out of 8.
