Eddy Maniez is a French contemporary artist celebrated for his vibrant silicone sculptures and unmistakable pointillist technique. Before dedicating himself fully to art, Maniez worked as a forester for over 20 years — an experience that deeply shaped his connection to nature and the animal world. A lifelong lover of animals and their environments, the natural world remains a constant source of inspiration throughout his work.

Maniez has developed a unique artistic language that transforms sculptural forms into bold, tactile works of art. Working primarily with silicone, resin, ceramics, and Swarovski crystals, he applies thousands of silicone dots by hand, creating richly textured surfaces filled with movement, energy, and color.

His sculptures celebrate both the beauty and spirit of the animal kingdom, inviting emotional connection through texture, scale, and vibrant composition.
