Quentin Garel is an internationally acclaimed French sculptor and draughtsman, best known for his striking bronze animal sculptures that evoke the texture and presence of wood.

Each work begins as an intricate charcoal drawing, which he then translates into a carved wooden form before casting it in bronze. The result is a luminous, tactile surface that balances realism with transformation. His animal figures often take on the form of masks, distilling the essence of the creature rather than depicting it in full, and inviting a more symbolic, almost totemic reading.
