Waldoboro sculptor Philippe Guillerm and a number of his creations.
Philippe Guillerm Gallery in Waldoboro will have this month’s vernissage on Saturday, Aug. 12 from 4-7 p.m. with the unveiling of sculptor Philippe Guillerm’s collection of inks on paper, titled “From Our Sea.”
“From Our Sea” is a powerful vision on the wonderful world of traveling and discovering the marvelous ocean. Guillerm has sailed the oceans since he was 20, and since then, the oceans have captivated him to a quest of preservation.
Guillerm is known for his violins and cellos carved from found driftwood and mixed with real music instruments, which convey not only physical strength and beauty but also individuality, intelligence, and grace. Lesser known are his paintings and drawings that further express his artistic involvement with the sea world. This exhibition brings together a series of ink drawings and driftwood sculptures that will captivate one’s imagination and define the concept of preserving our waters.
Philippe Guillerm Gallery is located at 882 Main St., Waldoboro.
