This piece is part of a series I called Time. To me handling time is managing to find a balance.

About:
Benoît Averly creates, in a refined spirit, art pieces in wood; with subtle contrasts, playing with light, lines and textures. Inspired by nature and architecture, he feeds his creations through his photographic journey through numerous trips, in search of a rhythm, and quiet balance. Wood, a media he discovered early, is worked in simple shapes, rarely smooth, most often hewn with different effects of matter, texture, or repetitive patterns. On some pieces the wood loses its obvious aspect, instead taking on the properties of other elements. The work is instinctive, and often takes place all at once, after a long reflection akin to the calligraphy style. His most coveted creations, most reflecting a peaceful grace, are prized by interior designers, architects and collectors worldwide, and are centerpieces in numerous luxury interiors, residences, hotels, yachts.

He says, “I like to think my sculptures as giving space to the interiors that welcome them.”
