ENSEMBLE DOMINIQUE DARDEK DAUM

Crystal has been a perpetual source of wonder for him, with its translucency and transparency, which led him to collaborate with Daum in the 1990s. “Premier Pas” and “Ensemble” appear as a syncretism of his two material-passions: bronze and glass, as well as his love of technical challenge. Indeed, the characters seem to be born out of a raw block of crystal, involving real alchemy with bronze. Another of his collaborations, “La Femme Acrobate”, illustrates this flamboyant alliance of light and movement, through a sparkling blue body vibrant with vitality.
