French Bespoke Bronze Crocodile Lamp by Patrick Laroche.
ED 2 of 8. Signed by the Artist.
The Crocodile Lamp is sculpted in bronze, its sinuous form evoking the texture of a crocodile’s scales. A soft, warm light flows along its surface, revealing the balance between animal power and organic elegance.
Price upon Request.
Patrick Laroche, born in 1959, is a Franco-Swiss artist. In 1985, he left France to settle in Belgium and embark on an artistic career. Shortly after his arrival, he met sculptor Roger de Jonckheere, winner of the first Prix de Rome. Under his tutelage, he learned the techniques of marble cutting, molding, enlarging and pantographing, skills that would become fundamental to his work. From then on, he devoted himself fully to sculpture. His work in stone, bronze and wood marks out the different directions of his artistic research.
His work quickly gained recognition, and in 1990 he was commissioned by the Réunion des Musées Nationaux (RMN) to carry out various reproduction and enlargement projects, including the reproduction of the Victory of Samothrace for the Louvre Museum.
Later in his life, Patrick Laroche decided to return to his favorite materials: stone, bronze and wood. A new desire was born: to fuse functionality and artistic expression.
