I think I was inspired by some works of the Arte Povera artist Guiseppe Penone: it is a representation of the flow of life (blood, sap...) in a living being, whether an human, an animal or a tree. It is also a way of saying "Let the good energy flow" through different states of matter represented by brown beeswax, marble and pink synthetic wax and their respective position to the wall. The 2 slabs of wax(reinforced with fiberglass) are the mouldings - one half each - of the marble slab which weighs roughly 20kg. The marble slab must be placed against the wall at an angle of 25° to the vertical in contcat with the pink wax slab on the floor. Each slab is roughly 2 cm thick The beeswax slab is just placed on top of the marble and "stuck" to the wall with modelling wax (supplied) or strong double-sided tape.

France
I currently live and work in Toulouse, SW France, the region where I was born in 1963.. Trained as a scientist I practised for some time as a part-time veterinary surgeon. As a self-taught artist (thanks to all those who helped and guided me), my first works were marble and bronze sculptures of wild animals - my ambition at the time was to produce objects of beauty. Then my scientific background and a better knowledge of art history drove me to explore the living and artistic worlds more deeply, together with the need to “use” animals to represent various facets of human behaviour. Thus appeared animal, anatomical and organic figures for which metamorphosis and hybridization are often central themes. While I like to work with different mediums and materials depending on my creational purpose, wax has come to predominate for me in both sculpture and painting. I also currently work with artist Luc Laumet, one notable example being our recent Drawing correspondence: 260 drawing exchanged beetween 14 December 2016 and 5 December 2017 http://pierrefauret.com/dessins-croises/ ....................................................................................
