Description

With , Isabel Miramontes offers us a deeply poetic reflection on the invisible forces that shape human relationships: balance, trust, support and the delicate art of living together.

Two bodies emerge from one another, intertwined yet distinct. They seem suspended in a fragile instant, defying gravity, searching for harmony between dependence and freedom. One figure carries, the other abandons itself; one gives strength, the other offers trust. Together, they become a single movement — a silent dialogue between two souls.

The title — “a way of living” — reveals the essence of the sculpture. It speaks about the compromises, emotions and connections that allow human beings to move forward together. Life is not always a straight path; it is a constant search for equilibrium, a choreography between oneself and others.

Faithful to her unique artistic language, Isabel Miramontes transforms the human body into a landscape of emotions. The elongated silhouettes, the fluid lines and the subtle distortions go beyond physical representation to reveal the inner world: vulnerability, tenderness, resilience and the profound desire to connect.

The empty spaces within the sculpture are as meaningful as the bronze itself. They allow air, light and imagination to pass through, reminding us that what connects us is often invisible.

is not only a sculpture about two figures — it is a sculpture about humanity. A celebration of the beauty of relationships, of the courage to rely on another person, and of the fragile yet powerful balance we create together.

A timeless bronze filled with movement, emotion and silent poetry.

Presentation

Isabel Miramontes was born in Santiago de Compostela, this high place of pilgrimage, of Celtic origin, still fascinates her and remains a magical country for her. But it was in Belgium, in Brussels, that the artist grew up and studied: she obtained a diploma in Plastic Arts at the Institut Sainte-Marie.

She continued her training in 1988 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Saint-Gilles, in Patrick Pouillart's studio, where she acquired solid experience in drawing and sketching on live models. Isabel Miramontes retains from this experience the need to fix at all times the gestures of the man, attitudes and impressions thrown on multiple sketchbooks, so many testimonies of the subtle and perspicacious gaze that she casts around her. It was in 1994, in the studio of a sculptor friend, that she passionately discovered sculpture, which became the preferred means of expression to which she now devoted herself. Every day, Isabel Miramontes isolates herself in her studio. There, with fervor, echoing her sketches, she shapes the earth, explores new forms to give substance to her inner life and transmit her vision of the world.

Struck by a silhouette, a movement, a symbol, a thought, Isabel Miramontes translates the human attitude with deep and sincere emotion. The plastic language of Miramontes imposes the human being represented in all the ambiguity of his power and his fragility, his confinement and his desire for freedom, his dream and his triumph. This fascinating character, a synthesis of forms and thoughts, expresses the reality of life with its moments of happiness but also of drama, of abandonment but also of tension, a character who, undoubtedly, challenges each of us in the depths of his be.
