About the Item
Lobster in Armour (Homard en armure) is a one-off bronze sculpture by French contemporary sculptor Chésade. The artist has a particular penchant for the sea world which has become her main source of inspiration. This lobster sculpture is part of the “marine animal” series.
Chésade's sculptures, which fall into a contemporary 'expressionist' trend, have very tactile and narrative surfaces. While the work in bronze has been thoroughly overhauled in its technic with a return to raw material, the work in wax - applied directly - provides the energy and detail for her unique pieces.

Chésade
French sculptor Chésade mainly draws her inspiration from the animal and marine worlds. Her masterful bronze sculptures are deftly created, with the material enriched by fine detailing and enhanced with a luminous patina. The artist’s works therefore become “tactile landscapes” imbued with her poetic vision and able to convey the animals’ energy and essence. The sculptor has won two medals at the Paris National Maritime Museum Biennial (2009 and 2013) and a gold medal at the French National Animal Artists’ Fair in 2009. In 2012, her body of animal work was honoured when she was awarded the prestigious Sandoz prize. “For me, sculpting is like “touching life”. It’s not a question of locking life away in an ever- imperfect naturalist imitation, but of having a poetic vision.”
