Beyond Earth
Organo-Cosmic Creations of Alain Mailland

Wood Symphony Gallery is pleased to present "Beyond Earth", a solo exhibition by the exceptional wood artist, Alain Mailland, who resides and creates in the serene landscapes of the South of France. Beyond Earth invites viewers into a transformative exploration of organic and cosmic forms created by Mailland. Inspired by natural landscapes, oceanic creatures, and the mysteries of the cosmos, Mailland’s work transcends traditional woodworking, offering a journey through realms both earthly and celestial. Each sculpture embodies the delicate balance between life forms found in nature and fantastical creations that seem drawn from distant galaxies.

 

With unique techniques such as hollowing, steam bending, off-centering, and sandblasting, Mailland has developed his own visionary style, blending botanical elements with shapes reminiscent of stars, nebulae, and oceanic depths. His sculptures seem to breathe, twist, and grow, pulling viewers into a hypnotic world where wood transforms into surreal organic structures that defy gravity and invite closer inspection. Beyond Earth showcases Mailland’s most captivating pieces, displaying his ability to harness the beauty of raw wood while shaping it into delicate, seemingly alive forms.
