Alexandre Laigner: the sculptor's journey
Attracted by any form of art, Alexandre Laigner was first immersed in the theatre at the age of seven. Enriching his vision of human nature, between classical or modern plays and filming sets, he is admitted to the competition of the Free Class of the Florent school at 23 years old.
In 2012, he obtained a first role in the feature film A.L.F., dealing with the animal cause, film for which he was awarded three performance awards in the United States and one in Italy. Between 2005 and 2018, author-songwriter-interpreter of three albums Pop/Rock/Folk, Alexandre starts to paint simultaneously, and sees his paintings exhibited since 2006 in the Galant Green Gallery on the Island of the CityIn Paris.
His creativity then turned to marine glass, he had been collecting for over twenty years on the Norman beaches of his childhood.
Since 2025 he has been a member of the Taylor Foundation as a sculptor.

An amazing friend,
Alexandre Laigner
a woman out of time,
able to detect any richness of heart
or mindless in the one without ever judging the
sudden poverty of the other.

A Story, A Virginie...
While some are running after gold, Elle, Virginia, one step after another, removes the stranded sea glass from the sand...
With an ever benevolent smile, gold is in her heart that she holds it. I met her a few years ago, on the beaches of my childhood where she lives. Sportive, concerned about the human soul, always in motion as water of the Channel, respectful of our planet in the depths of its being, it was by showing him my first glass creation that his desire to help in this search for marine glass began.
What I amassed in twenty years during some vacations, today represents barely a tenth of what this incredible friend gathered along the Mother's Coast, alone, and in a few months. Always encouraging me in my creation and always present, when I thank her for her complicity and her immense collaboration, she answers:
« It is I who thank you Alexander, my steps on the sand have even more meaning: from happiness to pureness, for the meditative side that the quest for glass gives me and by knowing that I am pleased to a wonderful friend, who creates enchanting works, for those who know how to appreciate the beauties of this world and the Creators who remain there. »
Virginie Lefranc is a timeless woman, able to detect any richness of heart or mind in one without ever judging the sudden poverty of the other.
After all, throw a bottle at the sea... it's human!
