Ange et Dam

Ange & Dam are going on,
all over the world, with their careful
and warm hearted discovery 
of events linked to the very varied cultural backgrounds of ethnical groups.
The works created locally are inspired by symbols or stories collected during many different encounters they had in places where they stayed in residence. The sculptures are created using materials found on the spot like wood from building sites, plants, used metal, bronze, etc.
