Jean-Jacques Joujon (JimaJine)

Contemporary creator of glass sculptures

Jean-Jacques JOUJON, known under the artist name JimaJine, has built a reputation in the world of contemporary art thanks to his unique and innovative stained glass sculptures, as well as his works on glass plates struck by hammer. JimaJine has successfully combined tradition and modernity to create works that never cease to surprise and amaze.

From a young age, JimaJine was fascinated by light and color, elements that would become the foundations of his artistic expression. As he grew up, he developed a keen interest in art history and artisanal techniques, which naturally led him to the practice of stained glass.

After years of refinement, JimaJine developed his stained glass-based glass sculptures, pushing the boundaries of this centuries-old tradition. Each piece he creates in his workshop located in the Basque Country is a celebration of artisanal know-how combined with contemporary technology. His sculptures are not just art objects; they are living creations that interact with their environment.

JimaJine's creations are a dialogue between glass and structural elements such as metal or wood. These material associations are not random; they are designed to reinforce the message and symbolism carried by each work which plays an important part in its artistic universe. The notion of infinity, for example, is a recurring theme in his work, illustrated by geometric shapes that repeat and overlap, creating an illusion of depth and endless continuity.

He draws his inspiration in particular from artists like Marc Chagall and Pierre Soulages on the stained glass side, but also Simon Berger, known for his creations in broken glass which challenge traditional perceptions of the material. These influences are palpable in the way JimaJine plays with the apparent fragility of glass to reveal its expressive and emotional strength.

But JimaJine's art is not just about aesthetics, it carries a consciousness and a vision. Each sculpture is a reflection on space, light and the interaction of the work with its viewer. JimaJine's customers are not simple buyers; they become partners in an experience that transcends the visual to touch the emotional.

JimaJine's objectives are clear: to make a living from his art while making it accessible to everyone. To achieve this, he does not just create; he communicates, participates in exhibitions and collaborates with galleries. His website and social networks are showcases where he shares his creative process and his latest works, creating a community of enthusiasts and collectors who follow his evolution.

JimaJine's journey is a testimony to the incessant search for balance between tradition and innovation.
