Rest with spring Sculpture

This piece was sold by Galerie Garnier-Delaporte in France. We lived for 2 years in Tuscany then in Haute Provence, Bretagne, Herault, Centre/France, Aveyron and now in the departement of Creuse ." Working together with my wife Marie-Pierre , I am a sculptor with 4 eyes" Working mainly with wood we are interested in the human figure, concentrate on heads and bust in simple shapes and minimal expression. Poetry of daily live...Simplicity...The confidence which can be found in Silence... As Richard Powers stated: " Shared bewilderment is the nearest thing we have to a common language " This sculpture is hand carved out of cherrytreewood lightly painted on a steel base. Just about wooden sculptures : do not put them on a place where the sun can shine directly on them, nor place them near a heating point . This could create cracks ! If it happens, keep them in a cool place for a while, humidity in the air will close them back. Wood is an alive material
