Swiss Sculptor Marc Raymond uses an assemblage technique to create bare sculptures. His abstract work, made of painted plywood and wood, have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Galleries and Cultural Centres in Europe and Canada. Recently he exhibited in Switzerland at the Grande Fontaine Gallery in Sion and at the Athens Art Gallery in Greece.

Mr. Raymond has carried out several public commissions and is the recipient of awards in Switzerland. In 2009, he received fellowships from VISARTE, the Visual Arts Association in Switzerland.
He is listed in the swiss dictionary of art of the Swiss Institute for the Study of Art, SIKART.

In addition to his sculpture work, Marc Raymond works with paper, presenting series of découpages, inks on paper and prints, close to the spirit of his sculptures.

Marc Raymond was born in Switzerland in 1968,
he grew up in Saillon. He attended the Swiss School of Sculpture in Brienz for three years with a specialistion in statuary and obtained his diploma in 1996. After graduation, he carried out internships with several Swiss sculptors.

Marc Raymond lives and works now in Lisbon.
