Introduction
The self-taught artist hozE, based in Brussels, channels his passion for the animal kingdom into sculptures that are both graceful and powerful. With a background rooted in architecture, an influence that shaped both his family and education, hozE’s work reflects a minimalist, geometric style characterized by remarkable precision.
For hozE, the panther and gorilla symbolize the extraordinary power of the animal world, serving as his central subjects and sources of inspiration. The panther embodies a seamless blend of dominance and elegance, while the gorilla fascinates with its immense strength, subtly imbued with human-like qualities. In hozE’s distinct artistic voice, his meticulous attention to detail captures the essence of these animals, translating their gestures into intricate, geometric forms.
His sculptures are designed to convey the raw energy of the animals to the viewer. This is achieved through his signature lamellar technique, which infuses the pieces with dynamic movement. The interaction of light and shadow lends his creations a vivid depth, with color tones that appear to shift depending on the angle of observation.
Striking a perfect balance between passion and precision, hozE crafts sculptures of monumental presence, where the refined lamellar structures bring the aesthetic facets of his animal subjects to life.
