Jean-Luc Curtis-Godillon

Formally trained as a boilermaker and later qualified as an engineer, Jean-Luc has spent over three decades refining his love for sculptural form. His practice is rooted in the creation of organic three-dimensional works that merge structural precision with expressive movement. Influenced by modern masters such as Giacometti and Henry Moore, he draws inspiration from the human figure, nature’s curves, and the interplay of shadow and light.

Working primarily in metal, timber, and reclaimed materials, Jean-Luc embraces the natural textures and imperfections that tell a story in every piece. His engineering background informs the integrity of his sculptures, while his artistic vision ensures each work feels alive—whether a small hand-held piece or a large-scale installation.

Jean-Luc’s works often explore themes of connection, resilience, and the quiet strength found in organic form. Based in northern Tasmania, he creates from his workshop and exhibits both at The Arrt House in Evandale and in select Tasmanian art spaces. His sculptures invite viewers to slow down, move around them, and discover new perspectives from every angle.
