About the Item
Chevron (Rafter) is a bronze sculpture by French contemporary artist Romain Langlois. In this kind of "trompe l'oeil" work, the artist takes a very mundane object (a roof beam, the kind of which can be found on construction sites) and transforms it into bronze, slightly changing its shape in the process so as to capture our attention and make us wonder what we truly see. With finesse, imposing nothing, Romain Langlois has us questioning our interaction with the environment and the world that surrounds us.
The wood-like textures of his sculptures are obtained in the casting process and the colors through different patinas.

Romain Langlois
Romain Langlois has become known for his unique bronze sculptures, to which he gives an appearance of a rock or wood. His work is not limited to this technical virtuosity: by reproducing objects that he takes from nature, he introduces a poetic twist that rises the ordinary to the rank of extraordinary. His artworks are part of major art collections (Matmut, Fondation Bullukian) and they have been exhibited in museums such as the Musée des Arts Décoratifs (Paris, 2017). They are also the subject of ambitious international commissions. “Everything is living, everything is moving, everything is changing. However, life cannot always show its best side; sometimes you have to root it out. This is what I am trying to do with my sculptures, gently, discreetly: to search for the life and expose it to those who are going to view them.’’
