Départ - bronze -Cougeberg
Rather than pursuing strict realism, Michel Couqueberg seeks to capture the essence of each animal. Clean lines, balanced forms and elegant silhouettes convey movement, energy and character, inviting visitors to experience as much as to observe.
Bronze is Michel Couqueberg's preferred medium. He enhances it with his own original technique, KOOKYKROM, a process combining graduated silvering and colour to create luminous reflections and give every sculpture a distinctive visual identity.
