Hi, I'm Benjamin. Well, Ben. I have always preferred (and that suits me well because "BenjaminSculpt Creations" would have been too long...).​​ I am in my late thirties at the time I write these few lines and I live on the outskirts of a small village in the southwest of France lost in the heart of the Gers countryside. 

​

For as long as I can remember, I have always been attracted to all forms of Art: drawing, illustrations, cinema, painting...but above all and above all sculpture. I have always been fascinated by the idea of ​​being able to physically materialize characters and scenes, to see them come to life before our eyes and even to go further by transmitting emotions or messages. ​

That's why I started collecting statues of my favorite characters and displaying them. They have become an integral part of my daily life, of my past, of my nostalgia and have strongly guided me in the discovery of my artistic path.   

Indeed, in 2012 I left my job in the video game sector while wondering about my future aspirations. During my reflections, my gaze then landed on my small display cases of statues and figurines and it was quite natural that I said to myself “Hey, it would be cool to create my own statues!”.  The next day, I bought 2 lumps of clay, 3 sculpting tools, some brushes and paint and I set off to learn sculpture and the entire creation process as a true autodidact.

I quickly discovered a true vocation and decided to devote myself completely to it to make it my job. ​

Today, this passion that drives me allows me to create my creations by paying homage to the films, licenses, characters and cult objects that have left their mark on me and to share this nostalgia with you. ​​

My ultimate goal thereafter will be to offer my own artistic collection with original pieces that I have entirely conceptualized in order to share my universe, my designs, my messages and my personal vision.

​

My greatest source of inspiration is undoubtedly Horror and Fantasy cinema. Having fallen into it since I was little thanks to my parents' hundreds of VHS tapes as well as my many hours browsing the shelves of video stores in my small town,, I have a particular affection for these genres, and more generally for the cinema of the 80s and 90s with which I grew up. 

My childhood dream was always to create creatures and special effects like Stan Winston, Rick Baker, Tom Savini, Greg Nicotero...and many others. This dream has never left me and feed me every day in my desire to create.

But other arts thrill me just as much, such as video games, manga/cartoons and the world of fantasy.

​

In terms of working technique, I mainly sculpt in plastiline (Monster Clay) which I find very pleasant to work with.

I generally mold my sculptures in silicone, then I make the cast of my creations in resin, which has many advantages, including the solidity and high fidelity of the prints. ​

I finally paint my creations using different types of brush and airbrush paints.

​

Since 2022, I have also started learning DIGITAL SCULPTURE in order to complete my sculpture techniques.
