Pellini Ge

Pellini Ge

This artist was born in Nancy (France), is not just an animal sculptor, or a naturalist, but also one who analyses the quintessence of his subjects. His need for creating is obvious but the working drawing takes him quite a long and demanding time. Perfectionist and full of passion as he is, he sculpts in the finest marble, which is a heavy and inconvenient material. By dint of muscular and artistic power, he is cast away by a subtle, tridimensional process into the far reaching spheres of today’s artistic creations.

Title of the project: "HIPPOPOMINOR"

Concept: "He long ago, there lived a small animal on the island of Cyprus, he was on the island before humans. The hippopotamus is one of the first living creatures to run on Cyprus. My sculpture is a reminder of this history that belongs to Cyprians".
