A prolific artist who works in several media, Thierry Chollat is known as much for his animal sculptures as for his illustrations. The wood and iron sculptures shown here offer a glimpse of the artist’s talents – he also sculpts in stone, papier mache, driftwood and other materials. Chollat’s goal is to bring attention to environmental issues and endangered species.
