Élévation

Take a diversion to the Petite Cité de Caractère of Saint-Florent-le-Veil to marvel at one of the sculptures on the Loire à Vélo cycle route between Angers and Nantes.

Artiste/Artist : Mathieu Ferry
Date création /Creation time : 2012
Matériaux/Materials : Cedar

Description :
In Elevation, the artist wanted to represent the movement that lets light through, through life.

Presentation of the artist and his approach:
Mathieu Ferry loves shapes that take shape and vice versa, and it's only through art that he can satisfy his passion. That's how sculpture came about. Like the poet who searches language for the poem it hides, removing the words he doesn't need, Mathieu Ferry removes the shavings in the wood that conceal the object of his thought in order to create a work of art.
