Artist Story:
After completing his studies in art and design at the “Ecole des Beaux
Arts de Paris”, Patrick Meyer made his debut in 1985 as a jewelry
designer. Immersing himself in the world of Parisian high
fashion, Patrick was recognized at this time both as an independent
artist selling his work to galleries, boutiques, and stores as a
designer working in collaboration with well-known French fashion house
such as Guy Laroche, Charles Jordan, Hanae Mori and Paco Rabanne.
During his time with these leaders of contemporary fashion, he created
functional accessories for these house labels and one-of-a-kind
sculptural jewelry for the runway.
In 1990, after much work and experience within the fashion industry,
Patrick, still residing in Paris, expanded his work with a new line of
decorative and functional objects. His modern and pure designs were
handmade silver, brass and nickel. In the late 90’s, Patrick was at a
turning point in his career and life and decided to relocate to San
Francisco, California. It was here that he successfully established
himself as a metal sculptor and designer specializing in functional and
decorative cast pewter accessories and objects for the home, office,
kitchen and bath.
Patrick draws his inspiration from modern and primitive art. His
aesthetic places an emphasis on pure futuristic and organic lines which
incorporate industrial and ethnic styles resulting in a symbiotic and
original design. He likes to work with high grade lead-free pewter,
soft metal that is easily forged, folded and cast.
