Artwork location: France

This captivating artwork features a miniature under a glass bell jar, housing a fantastical scene. At the center, a sculpted head with a pink face, a black floral ornament, and large ears stands out, evoking a fairy-like being. The detailed features and the blend of materials highlight remarkable craftsmanship. Surrounding the main figure, delicate miniature animals add a narrative dimension, transforming this piece into an enchanting tale frozen in time. The elegantly aged golden base contrasts with the crystalline transparency of the bell jar, accentuating the preciousness of the installation. This ensemble exudes an aura of mystery and wonder, inviting the viewer on a journey into a dreamlike world. The work is distinguished by its originality and its ability to fuse sculptural and narrative art into a harmonious composition.

Presentation

Lucie de Syracuse was born in 1981. She studies contemporary literature. Fond of the 19th century literature, Gerard de Nerval and Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann work speak to her about rebellion and ecstasy.

She finds out about the new form of publishing, the romantic books adorned with grotesque and fantastical drawings from such rare illustrators as Johannot and Nanteuil. It’s in the basements, the attics, the antiques markets where she collects the left aside, broken or strange toys, the dried flowers or objects from the past that will offer her the best material for her visual playlet.

She builds, inside of bulged glass frames, poetically strange pieces.A strange familar, map of a forgoten journey, who puts the eye in the middle of a fantasy game. Frames where unsettled powers are at work. Frames where fragments, litter, broken pieces do question the splitting of our thought, of our memory. Frames where the sublime and the grotesque meet up in all the spaces left open to imagination.

Lucie de Syracuse models and moulds her creations in Bordeaux.
