"Creations of the mind are more alive than matter." C. Baudelaire

Aldric has been floating around workshops since he was little. The scent of wood and steel are part of him. He found a love for handiwork and art, especially drawing and music. He spent twenty years working as an industrial maintenance technician before devoting himself to his love for art and creation. 2019 marked a turning point when he decided to go all in and make a career of his passion for metalwork. He set up in Occitanie as AL Fer & Co.

The artist specialises in designing steel items, sculptures and lighting made from scrap metal. He recycles his material and gives it a new lease of life based on a preliminary sketch or, more often than not, a spark of spontaneity. He goes with his gut instinct. AL Fer & Co strives to give the steel he works with a softer and gentler feel as opposed to the metal's cold and stiff image. The sculptor is inspired by designers such as Daniel Radulescu, Jordi Diez Fernandez and Caroline Brisset. His joyful, magical or deep pieces give items a new lease of life
