Body lost

Low relief sculptures

The pieces presented are part of a general research entitled "A corps perd".

They are fragments of disembodied bodies, emptied of all personality, a representation closer to the virtual than to the real.

They offer a reflection on the cult that our society has for the body but which it treats as an object.

Somagraphies

Within this theme, a series of wall sculptures constitute a sort of writing of the body, hence the generic title specifically invented.

These miniatures are studies with a view to scaling up; the female body is reduced to its exacerbated erotic parts.
They refer to one of the risks of regression of the status of women through the hyper-sexualization of the body, consented to by the women themselves (the vogue for breast and buttock implants etc.) which, confusing "sex without taboos" and " sexual freedom ”conform to ancestral phallocratic fantasies.
