to the artists, designers and craftspeople who think I call their work kitsch... this is NOT the case, it refers to my own work

Alban and the 'authentic fake'

It is the third time I see Alban's work on art fairs and every time I'm fascinated by the illusions he creates.  The objects look so real, old, worn out and heavy ... yet they're made of wood, plaster and resin.


Recently seen at the Affordable Art Fair in Brussels at The French Art Studio; click on this LINK to view more of his work in this gallery.


The pictures below were taken at the Lineart Art Fair in December 2009 at Envie d'Art gallery.
