Michel Michadu is a French artist and lives in Ploëzal, he has been working there since 2005.
A well traveled, self-taught sculptor, Michel Michadu has been sculpting since ten years now, his favorite material is iron.
He explores metal naturally and in a simplistic manner, through energy of an imaginary gladiator. Michadu's sculptures are enormous, they not only question us but throw us off balance and often call on to the burlesque side of life. His works are unknowingly in the wake of Breughel, Dubuffet and Rebeyrolles, with a hint of "laughter" and "vividness", worthy of Rabelais.
