Finding a rock is an event in itself. Often travelling to different parts of France or Europe, each trip becomes an adventure unfolding into an unknown encounter.
One never knows what will be seen or discovered. This is the primal meeting with the uncarved block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was wonderful to be introduced to Gabriel\u2019s work especially in the unique and intimate setting of his homemade home in Lacoste, where his pieces are extremely beautiful and meditative. The stones are ethereal in their hovering with an unearthly luminescence. What is remarkable is that they show no sign of the maker, no hand. They are completely autonomous in their presence even though they are extremely labour intensive, a work that can only be made by someone with a deep devotion and appreciation for the material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comfort is crime, the fountain told me from its rock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
