Description
This patinated bronze sculpture takes the heterogeneous form of an exploded rock whose different pieces are linked to an apparently liquid heart in the inner part of the rock. This dynamic work tends towards the surrounding space. In this bronze sculpture, Romain Langlois faithfully represents the appearance of the rock. To give the bronze its golden hue and reflections of light, the inside has been polished.
Serendipity refers to the idea of making a fortunate discovery. The liquid appearance of the centre of the piece symbolizes natural perpetual evolution, from which scientific endeavors emerge as well as aesthetic discoveries.
Romain Langlois draws his inspiration from nature. The artist's magnificent bronze work breathes new life into these abandoned stumps, rocks and branches. The imitation of nature is both formally and substantially transformed by the patina of the bronze: the shapes stretch and hollow out, and a golden substance - obtained by polishing the bronze - springs from the centre of the object.

Presentation
Born in 1977, Romain Langlois moved from design and architecture towards material via sculpture. To avoid just stammering, he began a titanic work of technical documentation, went through the Arts Déco in Strasbourg, met masters and undertook initial work by shaping a large number of pieces in earth.
Little by little, he became familiar with all the materials, their possibilities and their appearance. Having become an expert in production techniques, he moved from figurative and narrative sculpture via human representation towards working with the material for its own sake, using even wood and rocks to become a master of hybridization. But above all he uses the raw material of the sculpture (bronze) to transform it through the effect of patina and volume into wood, stone, liquid gold.
