About the Item
Bronze sculpture of a bear, 15 cm × 20 cm × 16 cm.
Limited edition of 8 + 4 artist’s proofs. Straight out of childhood, Eric Valat's bear sculptures break free from the traditional representation of that animal. In a playful attitude, the bear rocks on its back and plays with its paws. The forms of the sculpture tend towards purification and harmony. The patina with blue tones gives it elegance and lightness.

Eric Valat
After graduating from the Toulouse School of Fine Arts, Éric Valat began working with recycled metal objects, which fascinate him because of their history. The artist combines them with synthetic and plastic materials, allowing greater creative freedom, and develops a bestiary of unique sculptures. Today, Éric Valat’s artistic production consists of animals created in bronze or polyester. With their poetry and an impetus that seems to animate them, they invite us to tell ourselves stories, and to imagine our own fables. Since the late 90s, the artist has created more than 30 monumental sculptures, exhibited in private and public places. “Through all the characters I create, I try to create sculptures that live, that turn, that move.”
