LE MEROU One-of-a-kind zoomorphic wall sculpture

Wall sculpture in oxidized zinc sheet representing a fish’s head coming out of the painting. A unique piece hand-patinated by Yves Pagart, symbolizing the diversity and harmony of genres.
This patinated zinc wall sculpture evokes the powerful head of a grouper emerging from a metallic background with oxidized hues. Through his refined forms and marine textures, Yves Pagart mixes abstraction and nature, creating a work that is both raw and poetic. The Grouper seems to emerge from the wall, like a mysterious vestige of the depths.

Yves Pagart’s work is characterized by the manipulation of metal—bending, cutting, rolling, and smoothing steel sheets—to create sculptural furniture that often draws inspiration from the natural world. His pieces, such as the “Tamanoir” low table and the “Pangolin” dining table, exhibit organic forms that blur the line between art and functionality. These works are typically produced in limited editions, emphasizing their exclusivity and artistic value.

Pagart’s works have been exhibited internationally and are sought after in the art and design markets. Notably, his “Chaise longue ‘Mante’” (1998) achieved a record auction price of $12 000 at Christie’s Paris in 2024, underscoring his prominence in the field of contemporary functional art.
