This sculptor does not claim any master or any influence, "I am an autodidact , figurative , who creates in complete freedom without constraints or concessions ."
For Louis Tamain, doctor, perfect knowledge of anatomy and in particular of myology will help him and allow him to avoid many mistakes.
But the perfect reproduction of bodies, if we stick to it alone, can only produce cold and lifeless works.
In the sculpture of Louis Tamain, where the full nude is the rule, it is all the care he brings to the modeling and to certain details that materialize what is most impalpable in the shape of a body in y bringing forth emotion and life . All the curves and all the planes of these sculptures overlap , intersect , harmonize , returning to the soul the very essence of being.
