Crab man is a hybrid work in its materials and its flesh. Its structure is made up of several superimposed circles varying in thickness and dressed in recycled fabrics. This work is the result of an inter-species rapprochement where water and earth come together through current human and oceanic data. It was inspired by the plasticization of the oceans which modifies the diets of fish and large marine mammals and, by extension, that of human beings. The ingestion of plastic is materialized by the presence of lego. Here, the human is offered mutantly in the form of a plasticized crab.

Founded in 1923 by the writer André Breton, it will unite many artists like Salvador Dali (1904-1989), Max Ernst, René Magritte (1898-1967), Victor Brauner (1903-1966). Influenced by psychoanalysis, they see psychic life as a new field for renewing the arts. They will develop new ways to create and use new materials.
