About the Item

Kotakio Must is a sculpture by French contemporary artist Jacques Owczarek. This sculpture is available in format 15.5 cm x 6 cm x 4.5 cm (6.1 x 2.3 x 1.7 in). The artwork is signed and numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 8 editions + 4 artist’s proofs, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. This bronze cat takes form through a refined interplay of lines, edges, and curves. The uniqueness of the artist’s vision emerges in the clarity of the silhouette, the crispness of the contours, and the geometric nature of the sculpture—elements that make this cat a one-of-a-kind piece, rich in emotional expression. White bronze is an alloy in which part of the copper is replaced by tin and zinc, giving the material its distinctive silvery appearance. Jacques Owczarek is a self-taught sculptor who discovered his passion for sculpture at the age of 30—a moment he describes as his true birth. A tireless and meticulous craftsman, he devotes himself fully to each creation in a continuous pursuit of perfection. He never begins with a set image of an animal; instead, the form reveals itself as he works. As he explains: “I take some clay, I work it and I observe it. I try and perceive some sort of animal and progressively it’ll come to me. It’s the clay that is talking and my hands are just interpreting.” His wildlife sculptures are extraordinary: from one angle, the form may seem abstract, making it impossible to predict how it will appear from another. The viewer must move around the piece to fully appreciate its multiple facets. A deep sensitivity—and often a touch of humor—emerges from his works, as if each sculpture had absorbed a part of its creator’s spirit.
