In 2024, Daum brings to life a creation as daring as it is emotive: Punky Fish , a work born from the imagination of the artist and culinary photographer Patrick Rougereau. Initially conceived for a stylized gastronomic photograph of a sea bream, adorned with real white and gold feathers, this phantasmagorical fish is now a sculpture in crystal paste, in an exceptional edition signed Daum.
With his unique artistic vision, Patrick Rougereau transcends the boundaries between culinary art, photography, and sculpture. With Punky Fish , he stylizes the world of gastronomy to reveal a dreamlike, refined, and luxurious version. His winged sea bream, ready to fly to other skies or swim in the turquoise waters of his imagination, embodies escape, lightness, and visual emotion.
Thanks to Daum's ancestral know-how and the lost-wax casting technique, Punky Fish is reborn in three dimensions, frozen in an almost ethereal movement. The white crystal, punctuated with touches of gold, delicately reproduces the vaporous effect of the feathers, offering the work an unexpected poignancy.
This collaboration illustrates Daum's desire to push the boundaries of materials to explore new creative territories. Punky Fish thus becomes an ode to freedom, to the metamorphosis of the image, and to the fruitful encounter between two exceptional worlds: photography and glass art.
