Ferhat after having left Algeria where he had worked as a craftsman became a welder in France. In parallel with his industrial work, as an artist welder recycler he reuses and recycles not only materials but also his craft skills, while adapting them to a new cultural and social context in France by offering recycled statues in different metals such as iron, brass or copper. Ferhat has already won prizes and exhibits his works, for the moment in a local setting.
