About the artwork
Claude Millette is, before anything else, a sculpture interested in steel and its variations : painted, stainless, corten… Well-known for his public art work, he also realized small formats, always non-figurative. Recently, these have taken a playful look. We can associate them to the vegetal or animal world, or to the machinic universe, but they are, before anything else, a reflection on the empty and full, balance and imbalance, movement and static. As a true manipulator of the material, Claude Millette, welds, cuts, bolts, assembles and this very physical work on the metal is intimately linked to his gait.
