An untamed land of infinite space, punctuated by a myriad of lakes, strewn with immense forests where the only sound to be heard is the whistling of the wind. A grandiose land that inspires freedom and liberty.

At first a young naturalist in the nature reserve of Cape Tourmente on the shores of the majestic St Lawrence River (recognized around the world as an exceptional bird observation center), Éric Tardif became a sculptor. His passion for wild birds, their natural elegance and gracious movement became the inspiration for his creativity.

By using steam, he forms walnut, Canadian maple, ash, cherry and elm. giving life to birds in movement. The choice of wood adds touches that are sometimes voluptuous, sometimes solemn.

From his passion for nature in all its wild vastness comes gracious shapes crystallized by the artist in all their intimacy and immortalized in their movement. The treatment of the wood by the artist becomes the singular expression of his untamed spirit.

This virtual gallery presents the most recent works of the artist.
