Cette sculpture appartient à une installation intitulée LA TRIBU qui est constituée de silhouettes ; Elle est réalisée à partir d'une seule planche de hêtre sculptée, incisée, soulignée par des feuilles d'aluminium
Elle représente une jeune femme de profil, debout cambrée, le bras en l’air. Dans cet ouvrage j’ai recherché à évider la planche tout en gardant le contour : ainsi la silhouette est double : réelle au premier plan, et aérienne au second plan où elle apparait dans le vide ;
Elle est libérée car elle s’est détachée de la planche de hêtre ; Le corps est double à la fois plein et vide, positif et négatif, bois et transparence ; Dans la planche, à l’arrière-plan on distingue le visage d’un homme qui en contraste est grossier, lourd et matière, alors que la silhouette est espace et légèreté ;

Outsider Art

Invented by Jean Dubuffet (1901-1985) in 1945, the idea is to create works with primitive graphics that take no academic reference into account. He will also advise to "draw like a child" and encourage self-taught artists.

Technic Sculpture

Sculpture is an artistic activity which consists of designing and producing shapes in volume, in relief, either in the round (statuary), in high relief, in low relief, by modeling, by direct carving, by welding or assembly. The term sculpture also designates the object resulting from this activity.
