Observations :
I called these objects Inhuman sculptures because at no point is the human hand involved in this manufacturing process. Incredibly complex and virtuosic, each object is a technical feat, that raises doubts about how such a construction is possible and thus, almost appearing as magically constructed. The stories that the sculptures bring to us, come from an immemorial time, composed of legends, commonplace stories, and other personal myths. The entangling of these stories and the manufacturing technique creates a decor that has an imperceptible, but perpetual movement.
