Françoise Guinot

And then there are the other journeys: those that go back to childhood, those that were drawn in the wonderful stories of her mother, Andersen, Saint-Exupéry and his Little Prince; the door has never closed on this imagination. “Humor, poetry, dreams, for some it’s useless; for me, it’s Vital!” she says. “I need to see the marvelous in our world; it is there, around us in the small simple things of life. I try in my own way, thanks to the magic of bronze, to give substance to these small pleasures that do us so much good.

For 20 years, between reality and imagination, Françoise Guinot has been leading us into a world that speaks to each of us, to that part of childhood, tenderness and innocence that unites us.
Each sculpture offers us a bit of humanity to share, a little happiness, a bit of humor and poetry.

Among the rewards that Françoise Guinot obtained, we will quote:
