Born in 1966, Richard Orlinski is a Parisian sculptor famous for his depictions of animals and symbols of mass culture in Pop and Street Art.

After obtaining numerous degrees from prestigious universities such as the University of Paris-1 and the Institut de management international de Paris, Orlinski began working while devoting himself to art for leisure. In the early 2000s, he quit his job to devote himself entirely to art, presenting his first work to the public in 2004, namely a sculpture of a crocodile in red resin entitled Born Wild©.

"My animals reflect the human soul, its flaws, our animal side, an in-depth exploration of human nature." - Richard Orlinski

From this moment on, the artist explores the impulses of violence, convinced that art is the means to appease human instincts. And so it is that the crocodile made by Richard Orlinski becomes an iconic work of his artistic production. Subsequently, international art galleries decided to exhibit his artworks in Aspen in the USA and at the Fiac in Paris.
