Patrick Roger: 2. Sculptures

Patrick Roger sculpts with passion, to tell, question, or denounce subjects that are close to his heart. He draws inspiration from his entourage, the sculptures of Céleste, Camille and Mathilde, from nature, such as in the works Dendrologie, Lune, Iceland, from fascinating celebrities like Annie Lennox, Michael Jackson, or other themes, such as a series of 25 soaps whose material fascinates the artist.
177 new creations are presented here, each with a precise description and spectacular images, sublimating the materials in a compilation of the artist's work.
A notebook of contemporary inspirations and a reproduction of his sketchbook complete the repertoire of works, allowing the reader to immerse themself in the sculptor's world.
