After a business career, it was in 2011 that Christian Candelier decided to devote himself exclusively to his passion: sculpture. He is more particularly interested in the human figure, endeavoring to identify the curves of nature, in particular those of the female bodies. He creates nudes with sensual curves, inhabited by momentum, grace and elegance. He finds his inspirations in jewelry, haute couture, perfume ads or in the painting he likes.
Christian Candelier is looking for perfection in touch: no defects must hit her hand when she slides on the smooth curves. He carries his sculptures at the limit of imbalance in order to favor the harmony of the lines and the movement.
