Working with four hands, Les Hélènes create and innovate artistic works of their own. Their independence of character is certainly the best guarantee of creation, imagination, authenticity and quality. Les Hélènes practice drawing, engraving, clay modeling, wood and glass sculpture, and bronze chasing.
All life comes alive through encounters. The Hélènes met in Antibes, on the benches of the Lycée Audiberti. They share their ideas of a singular aesthetic, from the idea to the material, the creation is organized.
They love glass, and wood appears at the turn of an exhibition in a large vineyard, wood of 100 year old barrels, Les Hélènes insert glass to create an ocean in a tree. After engraving and sculpting the glass and wood, the bronze appears magical and luminous.
Glass, wood and bronze. These three noble materials live and dialogue when Les Hélènes speak of mythological and legendary figures emerging from the alchemy of bronze casting, glass rain and the carving of hundred-year-old oak wood.
The meaning of their creation emerges in their various plastic creations where wood, bronze and glass merge, taking us from Africa, the cradle of humanity, to Greece, the cradle of philosophy.
The creations of Hélènes have no limits, whether in technique or in material, and follow the same idea, playing with light.
Their technique to create their bronze pieces is unique because they sculpt directly in silico-clay cast sand the imprint of their work before casting the metal, the mold being destroyed each time.
Their engravings are found in magical places from Paris to Mauritius. Alain Ducasse solicits them for his restaurants, many interior designers will follow.
After glass engraving, Les Hélènes plunged into glass sculpture and created works that they distributed in the greatest art galleries and boutiques alongside Lalique and Daum.
The Hélènes are self-taught.
