Ever since his childhood, marked by stories of the nearby Nazi camps, Clément Sculpteur, born in Besançon in 1943, has never ceased to question memory, trace and material. His first sculpture - a skull and crossbones in raw clay - was born of the shock of these revelations. Early on, he turned to powerful, moving sculpture, exploring themes of the Holocaust, the body, disappearance and aging.
His works in raw clay or manganese-impregnated earth are compressed, cracked, marked in their flesh. They're not about aesthetics, but the naked truth: that of bruised, petrified bodies, bearers of memory. In both his installations and his more recent sculptures, inspired by medieval "transis", Clément Sculpteur questions human fragility, the passage of time and collective memory.
A sculptor of pain and silence, he gives form to the unspeakable. His work is an uncompromising, deeply humanist testimony.
