Homage to Giacometti: this walking man is made of glued newspaper, very solid and patinated to give the appearance of bronze. A metal structure gives it its shape, the base is made of black painted wood. I tried to stick as close as possible to the original, however, the surface is much smoother. The patina is in coppery bronze blacks.

Vanessa Renoux is a contemporary French artist. Lightness and movement, transparency and light, all a work to gain freedom, freedom of pigments and poetry of forms.

Vanessa Renoux works on sculpture with recycled, upcycled materials, mainly recycled newspaper. The creation of patinas with colored reflections results in trompe-l’oeil sculptures, “paper-bronze”.
Newsprint allows more freedom, gravity is less present, lightness and mobility are thus possible. His sculptures explore the attitudes of dance and movement, the animal sculptures are feline, refined and stylized (cats, bulls, horses...).

A trip to New York made him want to paint the city in watercolors. She likes to superimpose layers of paint, washes, to give relief and depth, mix colors, create blurs, depict cloudy atmospheres... She also paints the landscapes that surround her (Annecy, its lake, the countryside ) and the cities she visits.

Recently, his work inspired by Japanese Prints has enjoyed great success.

Vanessa Renoux was born in 1973, in Drôme, France.
