Jürgen Chaumarat was born in 1970, Tahiti, Pacific Ocean.
Precocious sense of fleeting, place of education in Paris, Algeria, Normandy, Aquitaine, Auvergne, and, always in between, stays in Polynesia.
A passion for glass, material of light, of which he explored stratification building techniques as an autodidact.
Following an imperious call, he escaped from the Parisian maze for a rebirth in the remote Pacific. He learned tropical woods, bamboo, coconut tree, warmness that shined through a specific style with curving and roving lines. Objects acquire organic and almost convulsive dimensions.
Four years feeding a changing vision, and Jürgen is back in France. With a new intuition of harmony, and an ever accute sense of here and now.
