AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Julien Bass, French nationality born in 1980

After a career in the world of fashion, communication and design, Julien sets off to travel around the world for seven years. Upon his return, he engages in a confrontation with matter, he experiments with techniques of wood, fire, earth and appropriates all media that come to hand and inspire him such as galvanized sheet metal, fabric, metal, etc. Through his creations, the artist aims to raise public awareness about environmental protection and uses exclusively recovered materials. He elevates the material and makes it desirable, he creates a dialogue with the spiritual.

The work is titled "Axono"

This sculpture explores the idea of geometric construction through a vertical sequence of interlocked wooden modules. Each segment is carved and slightly offset, creating a rhythm of tension and balance that evokes architectural axonometry. The surface carbonized, obtained by fire, reveals both the fragility and resilience of the material while highlighting the precise geometry of the form. I chose wood for its organic grain and its ability to record transformations. The work invites viewers to reflect on structure, elevation and the silent power of assembled forms.

Dimensions: 200x20x20 cm
Base dimensions: 30x30 cm
Total weight: 25 kg
The piece is signed by a metal plaque fixed at the bottom right
A certificate of authenticity is issued at purchase
The piece is currently kept in France
The piece is wrapped in several layers of bubble wrap
This work draws inspiration from Brutalism and sacred rituals
The work is presented to the public in various galleries in the south of France

Seller's Story

Craftsman, artist, sculptor, and enthusiast, I offer you a selection of antique objects (renovated), original furniture creations, and art pieces of my own making. I craft these pieces in my workshop in the wild Ardèche. I manufacture them according to the rules of the craft, using hand tools as much as possible. I also create bespoke furniture.
