Junceau’s work often evokes the appearance of antiquity, employing sculptural reproduction techniques such as the press mold, and other methods that date back to the third millennium BC. His figurative sculptures draw on the visual language of classical art, reinterpreting it to offer a contemporary perspective on artistic heritage. Fascinated by the figurative and by the idea of the Beseelten (literally “ensouled”) in art, from the Pygmalion myth to the fusion of classical and folk forms in early 20th-century sculptor Elie Nadelman, Junceau develops his figures from his own drawings and imagination rather than from live models.
