Yann Faisant

Biography

Yann Faisant is a contemporary French artist. He experiments with different ways of making art, such as video, installation and sculpture, to show the close relationship and tensions between man and nature. He has collaborated with the artist Jean-Claude Mazel since 1989. Through the same aesthetic discourse and search of beauty, they created a genuine creative dialogue in which their various works are reflected. In the year 2000, they started the Extraordinary Garden. It displays idealistic and symbolic bronze sculptures with a multicolored patina that are all a product of positive aesthetic research. Many galleries, particularly in Europe and China, as well as countless private and institutional collections, have The Extraordinary Garden in their collections. Yann Faisant sketched his great work, Opus Magnum, in 2009 and developed the idea of resistance by showing the video “Silence Part I”, which was a visual and narrative introduction to the theme of survival and was made with Ginkgo Biloba. The exhibition S’ame-user (Galerie Art Diffusion, Paris), which addressed alchemical themes through the eyes of animals or animae (souls or spirits), the apple, a symbol of nature in myths and stories, was shown the next year. He began using the Fibonacci sequence in 2011, a mathematical sequence that tends towards perfection, to show how perfect nature is. He creates and exhibits seven sculptures: seven apples in bronze and 24 carat gold and which are surmounted by a leaf of Ginkgo Biloba. This piece was created by the artist using the golden ratio, often known as divine proportion.
