« Art is like the earth for me, it never lies. By dint of persevering, it ends up giving us what we ask for. »
Laurent Gbehoun is a sculptor based in Benin whose works have been exhibited nationally. Through his art, he explores themes relating to life, pain, death, jealousy, family, unity, education, and marriage. Gbehoun refers to his sculptural style as "Osculpture". He most often creates using animal bones, horns, hooves, feathers, hair, iron, wood, and plastic, which he glues or sews together with wire.
