French sculptor Pascal Giacomini is also a functional artist par excellence. What is functional art? This consummate sculptor defines it as art with a practical use! Need a fireplace screen? Why not get a figurative art piece in the process? Why should a wine rack simply hold bottles when it can be an abstract sculpture as well? In this Southern California artist's hands, a balcony railing becomes not just functional but a stunning sculpture to be taken away should the owner ever decide to sell his or her home. Even a simple fishbowl gets treated to the Hollywood-based sculptor's penchant for creating unusual and striking elements, turning a straightforward household item into a modern work of art.

Using metals such as stainless steel, bronze, and copper, as well as other materials such as glass, resin, and found objects, the sculptor turns a gate into a showpiece, a door into a conversation piece, and a gas patio torch into a dramatic visual accent. Indoors or outdoors, living room or garden, you can turn your home into a gallery of art by asking this experienced artist to turn a simple bed, table, console, or candelabra into a memorable work of art that people will want to take home with them!

The sculptor, whose work spans the modern, classical, abstract, and figurative categories, is happy to work on commission to create the perfect work of art for individual environments. The artist is also happy to work with designers to achieve the look that clients have always dreamed of. The artist's functional art is for sale and can be seen at Galerie Lakaye in Los Angeles in the Hollywood area. Portfolios can be provided upon demand.
