About Charlie II

This remarkable series of contemporary indoor sculptures speaks to Paul Duval’s skill in capturing the human ‘condition’ in simple form. Each paper mache and wire sculpture possesses a distinctive personality expressed in a pose and a gesture. Charlie II stands tall, head turned, arms by his side engaging the viewer to ask, what is he thinking?

“Whether with one, two or more characters, I try to give the impression that my sculptures are observing us so that they become witnesses to our daily life.” - Paul Duval
