It is a free-access studio, probably a little secret, that few Bordelais know, and yet it is astonishing, packed with works each more original than the last.
BUT WHO IS THIS ARTIST?
Jean-Francois Buisson is a sculptor whose specialty is working with scrap metal… He breathes life into tonnes of inert materials, metal parts of every kind, salvaged here and there, and turns them into artworks, sculptures and even quirky furniture.
AN ECO-CONSCIOUS CREATIVE APPROACH
Giving a second life to piles of scrap metal is an approach that resonates more today than ever. Jean-François Buisson seems limitless when it comes to creating: door pieces, sculptures, furniture, constructions, unusual objects… As a welding virtuoso, this artist launches us into a world made of metal and life.
A STUDIO PARK
Yes, because you can easily see and visit his studio… A few steps from the Cité du Vin, on Place Raulin in Bacalan, you will reach this surprising studio. Metal trees, unexpected sofas, drums… A universe where living beings and metal mingle in a striking poetry and composition.
