This giraffe in bronze takes shape through a series of lines, edges and curves. The animal's characteristics are recognizable : its silhouette, its head and its posture. But the peculiarity of the artist's interpretation comes to the fore in the clarity of the shape, the sharpness of the lines, the sculpture's geometric aspect. Enough elements to make this giraffe a unique piece, brimming with emotion.
Jacques Owczarek is self taught. He discovered sculpture at the age of 30 and considers that he was really born at that moment. A hard worker, he crafts his pieces with extreme thoroughness and is on an eternal quest for perfection.. He never starts a piece with a fixed idea of an animal in mind, this all comes together during the creative process. He even admits: " I take some clay, I work it and I observe it. I try and perceive some sort of animal and progressively it'll come to me. It's the clay that is talking and my hands are just interpreting."
His wildlife sculptures are incredible: any perspective changes the whole aspect of the sculpture. You have to circle the piece to discover all the different shapes. Much sensibility but also humor arise from his sculptures which seem to have imbibed the soul of their creator.

Jacques Owczarek
Jacques Owczarek’s sculptures oscillate between figuration and abstraction, redefining the genre of animal sculpture. In his bronze bestiary, the artist favours purity of form, synthesising it in a distinct, highly original style. He allows himself to be guided by his intuitions, creating animals with dynamic, geometric lines that give an impression of movement to static matter. Jacques Owczarek has exhibited at some of the most prestigious international shows and fairs for almost 20 years. “For me, the animal is just a pretext, a pretext for shapes that will question, for volumes that will live, that will settle, that will take possession of the place, that will evolve in a direction that I will give them because they impose themselves on me.’’
