Art dolls sculptures by Dustin Poché

Art dolls sculptures by Dustin Poché. (USA)

Dustin Poché a fait ses études à l’Institut d’Art Colorado. Il puise son inspiration dans son amour de la mode et de son expérience à New York, où son travail impliquait la creation de costumes et d’illustrations dans l’industrie de la mode.
Ses premieres expériences dans le domaine a commencé avec la restauration de poupées de boudoir de 1920, qu’il expose et qui ont été plébiscitées.
J’ai beaucoup appris en travaillant sur des poupées anciennes, mais il y avait quelque chose qui me manquait dans le résultat final. J’ai donc sculpté des personnages avec des visages plus expressifs, avec plus d’émotions. ”
Son inspiration vient d’expériences personnelles. « Mes pièces sont très personnelles et je dois être investis dans le concept … L’idée commence par une idée claire dans ma tête, commence alors mon travail  en argile, et avec différents autres médias que j’essaie pour créer de nouveaux effets “.
L’artiste aime travailler avec des textiles anciens et autres fibres naturelles pour créer les vêtements. L’utilisation de ces matériaux uniques ajoute à l’authenticité de ses sculptures.
Son travail a été inclus dans des publications artistiques et exposé.
J’aime le regard des gens et leur reaction sur mon travail. C’est cette émotion qui me pousse à continuer à évoluer en tant qu’artiste“.

Dustin Poche’ is a Midwestern multimedia artist who creates original sculptures and one of a kind fine art figures. He was formally educated at the Colorado Institute of Art. He draws inspiration from his love of period fashion and his work experience in New York, where his career involved costume design, textiles and illustration within the fashion industry.
His first venture into the figure and sculpting world began with the restoration of boudoir dolls, circa 1920. He exhibited those early works and they were received with much excitement and admiration.
“I learned a lot while working with the antique dolls, but there was something missing in the end result. I imagined characters with more expressive faces, emotions,and gestures. To bring these characters to light, I realized I had to begin sculpting them.”
His ideas come from many sources; personal experiences, emotions, and unique findings. Poche’ comments, “My pieces are very personal and I must be invested in the concept… The idea begins as an unclear image in my head which is brought into focus as the figure evolves. My work is currently done in paper clay but I’m always trying different mediums to create new effects.”
Poche’ likes to work with antique and vintage materials to create the clothing. He feels the use of these unique materials adds to the authenticity of the figure and he enjoys working with natural fibers.
Poche’s work has been included in artistic publications and exhibited at art shows. He truly enjoys sharing his sculptures with others.
“I’m thankful for those who enjoy my work and I look forward to creating for many years to come. It brings me great joy to see people react to my art. Every reaction means a piece has evoked an emotion and that’s what drives me to continue to evolve as an artist.”
