Fabien Saliman

Visual Artist - Sculptor Extraordinaire

- Fabien SALIMAN, a talented Franco-Mauritian artist, embarked on a lifelong journey fueled by his early passion for drawing, graphics, painting, and, above all, the art of sculpture, which has been his primary pursuit for over two decades. His creative roots extend deep into the realms of Japan, comics, the world of science fiction, timeless manga and art history without limits or frontiers.

In Fabien's workshop, samurais come to life through the craftsmanship of noble materials, including different types of wood, embroidered fabrics, textiles reminiscent of Japanese heritage, stones and pearls, gold or silver leaf, precious metal inlay and embroidery. The aim is to bring to life imposing creatures adorned with horns, mask armor and katanas. In this union of modernity and tradition, Fabien's characters traverse the boundaries of time: Samurai, Robots, Minotaurs...
What sets Fabien apart is his fascination with crafting sculptures that breathe life into characters and creatures, a blending of multicultural influences. The diverse materials and techniques, and the complexity of design, give each piece a unique and rare appearance. Every expressive mask is custom-sculpted, every piece of armor individually tailored, imparting an inimitable character to each creation. By giving each Samurai a name and a symbolism, Fabien wants to give them a personality of their own.

Each sculpture possesses a magnetic quality, drawing the beholder's gaze and inspiring fascination. It invites us to observe, to circle around, and to let our imaginations run wild. Each element in Fabien's creations is meticulously considered, and materials are handpicked for their symbolic, dynamic, and aesthetic significance, always with unwavering precision and meticulous attention to detail. This intriguing fusion of sculpture and Magic: The Gathering (MTG) opens new vistas of artistry. If you're keen on acquiring one of Fabien's Samurai statues, please feel free to reach out. While every model displayed in the gallery has already found its rightful owner, Fabien is continuously crafting new custom orders, tailor-made to your unique vision.
