Guardian of Thought by Bertrand Godefroy is a sculpture that evokes the duality of body and mind, a silent guardian of our deepest thoughts. Made of resin with the possibility of being cast in bronze, this work explores the simultaneous weight and lightness of contemplation. The serene face, lowered in an intense meditation, contrasts beautifully with the tense muscles and the clear lines of the torso, creating a visual and spiritual harmony. Bertrand Godefroy, with his experience and training at the École Emile Cohl in Lyon and the Florence Academy of Art, manages to capture the essence of human reflection in this room. His know-how, which combines academic techniques and modern expressiveness, makes it possible to give life to this figure who, while being anchored in matter, seems to float in the ether of his own thoughts. The sculpture is distinguished by its mastery of shadows and lights, each curve and fold giving the impression of a palpable and dynamic presence. Guardian of Thought is not simply a work of art; it is an invitation to contemplation, a daily reminder of the depth and complexity of human thought. This majestic room will add a touch of reflection and serenity to any space, whether personal or professional. Don't miss the opportunity to own a unique work, bearer of meaning and timeless beauty.

Bertrand Godefroy, a sculptor and draftsman hailing from , discovered his ion for the arts at a young age while residing in Switzerland. His journey began with academic drawing, which laid the foundation for his artistic pursuits.
Seeking to further his skills, Bertrand pursued formal artistic education at Lyon’s Ecole Emile Cohl, where he graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in draftsmanship. It was during his studies here that he found himself drawn to sculpture as his primary interest.
To deepen his understanding of sculpting techniques, Bertrand embarked on an internship at Paris’ Atelier Promethée, specializing in mold making and casting. This experience cemented his decision to pursue sculpting as a career.
Continuing his artistic development, Bertrand enrolled in the sculpture program at the esteemed Florence Academy of Art, graduating and now sharing his knowledge as a principal drawing instructor.

My artistic exploration is rooted in a deep appreciation for the elegance of the human form. I am dedicated to capturing its natural beauty with sincerity and depth.

Within my artistic journey, I merge this commitment with my personal perspective and keen sensitivity. Through careful observation and introspection, I aim not only to depict outward appearances but also to convey the underlying emotions and concepts.

Each stroke, every contour, and the deliberate arrangement of elements in my work are crafted to transcend mere representation. They serve as a means to translate the intangible aspects of human experience into visual narratives.

In this way, my creations serve as reflections of the intricate tapestry of life, offering viewers a glimpse into the complexity and richness of our shared existence.
