Life occasionally affords us encounters where a glance, a smile, a handshake, is enough to immediately establish a contact so close that it remains indestructible for the future. Jean-Philippe Richard is one of those people. The man has a pleasing appearance, with a clear gaze and a frank and persistent smile. You can tell straight away that he is permeated through and through by his art, he lives for it, in fact. As is often the case with artists, an internal bright light seems to emanate from the man himself.
This force drives him onward in a permanent process of creation. He cuts his works, shapes them in earth. He moulds them, casts them in bronze and polishes them for hours to give them a sheen of which he alone holds the secret.
His classic shapes and soft lines are of course the result of his art, but also of his ego, his inner self that breathes life and revival into his creations! The man is insatiable; his works are numerous and diverse. He is present in all the continents, in private collections, museums, galleries, hotels, where they are shared and preserved by all, proud to be amongst those who possess one of his works.
Born out of earth and clay, like Aprodite from the spray and the sea, Justine, Alice, Lea and and the others are not unreal creatures, forged out of the dreams of a beauty-lover. They are certainly beautiful, and women of the earth too, flowers and fruit of a Hesperides garden from another age.
Walk around them to see them properly from all angles, surprise them listening to each other in a talkative silence; stand away from their enclosed eyelids so as to better imagine the images hiding underneath, and you will perhaps find yourself unknowingly on the road to understanding femininity.
