le futur Sculpture by Valerie Barrault

Valerie Barrault, a contemporary French sculptor, embarked on her sculpting journey in 2008, and swiftly, the decision to create expressive faces became a natural inclination for her.

Having initially explored drawing and clay modeling, Valerie delved into the realm of sculpture, gradually unlocking the secrets of patina techniques. The allure of creating expressive faces and the transformative power of patinas have since become integral elements of her artistic expression.

Valerie's artistic vision leads her to address significant themes poetically, aiming to alter perspectives on the world that surrounds us. A distinctive aspect of her work is the invitation to explore the hidden side of her statues—their backs. Drawing inspiration from the Loire, Sologne, cherished individuals, and music, she allows her fingers and tools to be guided by these diverse sources of inspiration.

Her sculptures find a regular showcase in the Center region, including cities like Orleans, Blois, and Chartres. Since 2019, Valerie has expanded her artistic footprint, exporting her works to Paris and its surrounding regions, as well as to galleries in the western part of France.
