He graduated in 2004 from the St. Petersburg State Academy of Industrial Art and Design, where he obtained a Master's degree in the Department of Monumental Arts. Sculptural art has always been his favorite artistic expression. In 2004 he was asked to replace a sculptor at the sand sculpture competition in St. Petersburg, marveling at this material so malleable and temporary and so different from the academic style that it became his main profession.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \t

Enguerrand has always felt attracted to space design. Initially fascinated by architecture and historical heritage, he gradually opened up to the art of sculpture thanks to his university training as an art historian and archaeologist. He discovered the art of sculpting on sand, ice and snow in 1999. Since then, he has traveled the world in the company of colleagues who have quickly become his best friends.
\nEnguerrand is known for his multidisciplinary skills (illustrative representations, abstractions, landscape, etc.) and for his desire to experiment (high reliefs, false perspective effects, etc.).
\nHe also organized and directed several small sculpture events in Belgium.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \t
