It's a family thing.  Dating back to Paul’s great-great-grandfather's 19th-century sculptures (Charles Champagne 1830-1901), a design engineer father, and a watercolorist mother, Paul was genetically engineered to blur the lines between two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces. And despite a foray into finance, he has never lost his sense of wonder for the natural world.   

Emphasizing biomimicry, he draws inspiration from natural designs and structures, turning them into creative art forms. His work in hydrology explores water's properties and behaviors, translating technical studies into tangible art pieces. By combining traditional materials like Murano glass with modern techniques, Paul continues to push the boundaries of his award-winning approach to contemporary art.
