Filter or prism are the usual writings of glass sculpture and the means of playing the score of a visual game with light flows. Yves Braun's fluorescent sculptures escape this reading and offer a fresh look at the quality of light and the division of colors. Associated with glass, fluorescence calls out for its novelty, but above all for its impossible nature because it is a light revealed by matter. It is another language, carrying a new poetry of light.
Yves Braun's sculptures invite one to abandon the gaze in this elusive and experience an impossible journey, to this mythical and marvelous non-place where matter is erased and tells its light ...
"... here light transcends reality and brings us to a mystical dimension that refers to the cosmogonies in which it is at the origin of creation and life." - Laurent Subra, Director of the Carmaux Glass Art Center / Museum
Yves Braun was born in 1958 in Brussels. DPLG architect at the Institut Supérieur d'Architecture de l'Etat - la Cambre - Brussels, in 1982.
Architect and designer activity from 1982 to 1992.
Self-taught glass artist and visual artist, he set up his workshop in France in 1989.
Curious and inventive artist, his research on light leads him to the creation of a polychrome range of fluorescent glasses. His sculptures use the technique of glass cast on a sand bed.
