SCULPTURE WORKSHOP  -  MATHIEU FERRE

Mathieu Ferré Sculptor

Experience :

The first passion for crafting came early and took shape in 2006 after participating in the renovation of a house. After that, I decided to redirect study the principles of masonry and technical structure work. I pass with honors a BAC pro (equivalent to A level) and began in 2007, in Nantes, to learn stonecarving in the No. 1 company of renovation in France .

This experience confronted me with inportant interventions on churches structure but also the thoroughness and accuracy of the stonecarving.

After several years , I proposed my services to a small specialised in limousinerie (ancient masonry) company before i went to study in Cambodia , the Khmer sculpture . Eight months of work and observation of local techniques.

Back in France , I was offered to work for several months in Rennes.still attracted by sculpture , I went to work in Berry and Alsace.

Back in Britanny since 2012 and after a year working for a company of Morbihan historical monuments , I decided to work for myself.
