Xavier Rogé takes you to eternity

My sculptures are the result of a deep reflection around the vast theme of eternity. Chance is a great help to me, to which I bring the mastery of sometimes unexpected materials.

The pleasure of exchanging with the viewer on subjects that I feel are important to discuss is one of my motivations for continuing to produce...


My first creations were made of aluminum foil, I had fun making extraordinary dinosaurs that I named according to what they inspired me, I must have been 6 years old...

Then I discovered the screwdriver and a period of autopsy of various machines and other household appliances followed. Music came to deeply rock my young soul that I felt vibrate.

The time of proud adolescence pushed me on stage, it was also my first job. I then did various stints behind the scenes of restaurants, in the kitchen, where I tried, despite the crazy pace, to present simple and harmonious dishes.



I then chose to leave this world, in which I saw far too much food waste, to resume studies in the field of dental prosthetics where I wanted to exercise my sense of attention to detail. But these 2 years of study made me discover a profession made of a lot of seclusion.


So I decided to devote myself to community life and I concentrated particularly on the production of works that I intended to be exhibited, while hoping to make a living from it. The creation of these sculptures, and others to come, found a favorable echo, which strengthened me in this new path. All these different experiences were interspersed with numerous trips that dispersed prejudices in me and made me freer.


It is this freedom, within eternity, that I seek through my creations.
