Maxime Piccoli, a French sculptor from Toulouse, explores through his creations the relationship between the physical form and the inner being of both humans and animals.

His terracotta sculptures of human and animal anatomy are sliced and then meticulously restructured, giving an impression of successive movements and a kinetic dimension.

Maxime Piccoli’s artistic approach is distinguished first and foremost by his unique perspective on volumes and shapes, which he addresses from novel angles thanks to advanced modelling techniques. By stepping away from the conventions of classical sculpture, he embarks on an artistic quest that is both sensitive and conceptual, inviting the viewer to engage in a deep reflection on the nature of existence.

In addition to his sculptural creations, Maxime Piccoli regularly participates in international exhibitions, where his work is celebrated for its innovation and artistic depth. His contribution to the contemporary art world positions him as a major figure on the Toulouse art scene and beyond, continually seeking new forms of expression and visual communication.
