Exhibition Bordeaux
Hello!I'm back from Bordeaux!It was cold, but sunny, people came and I talked a lot about my work.Those who came and listened seemed enthusiastic, so it was an interesting experience.The gallery itself is very big and my artworks are very small, so instead of hanging them on the walls, where my artworks would have been lost, Jean-François Buisson, the artist in chef (and the owner of the gallery) borrowed me a metal tree he made so I could present my artwork on it.Following a short introduction to the artworks I've presented at that exhibition:
Daily Mini Veggie
In 2015, I did a daily challenge where I sculpted one different fruit or vegetable everyday. The idea behind that artwork was to show the great variety of comestible plants but also to encourage people to eat more vegetables and less meat, as meat has a very high impact on the environment.I made 233 different ones and stopped when I felt I had made my point.
Symbiosis
After that I started a project called "symbiosis", where I mix fauna and flora, to show how well animals and plants coexist, a balance that we humans lost with our environment.
Happy Bugs
Since all theses issues around the environment were getting to me, I started the happy bugs project where I made bugs dance. Something more fun, although always very inspired by the beauty of nature.
