Biography
Bertrand Fauconnet was born in Besançon, Franche Comté, in 1958.
He dreamed for a long time of studying Fine Arts but finally embraced a career as a veterinarian. However, he never stopped painting and drawing.
For the last few years, Sculpture has allowed him to give life to the animals he was sketching live.
Bertrand says: “I try to represent these animals, not as they really are, but as I see them in nature with their movements and emotions.”
Bertrand Fauconnet worked metal, plates, and rods, almost giving life to a series of expressive devil-like animals.
Bodies made of metallic scales with welds, make them almost move and palpitate.
