Pascal

Aumaître

Wood techniques

After studying cabinetmaking and wood sculpture at the Saint Luc Tournai Institute, he obtained his Beaux-Arts diploma from Paris in 1986. In his multidisciplinary work, Pascal Aumaître exploits the transformative capacity of the wood medium and attempts to to interfere in the intimacy of the material in order to create forms which touch as much on the tradition as on the contemporary. His experiments are carried out in fields as different as cinema and television, theater sets, architectural models, frames, staircases, furniture, marquetry, musical instruments, restoration of sculptures and antique furniture or even the manufacture of bas-reliefs.
