• “Women are my favorite subject. A free and multiple woman: active, seductive, graceful, connected. Contemporary."

-Hedwige Leroux

• Hedwig looks at the world around her and reveals our habits and attitudes in her sculpture. Hedwig's work is remarkable, unique and very contemplative... On one side there is the feminine and sensual part (the woman), on the other side the urban and modern sphere (for example the smartphone). The phone makes us imagine new scenarios, in a story to be discovered. Communication is mainly done through emotions and moods rather than didacticism and rationality.

• Hedwige Leroux's women immediately catch the eye with their elegance. Tall, thin, slender, they pose, sure of their charm and seduction. Serene, they seem detached from the instabilities of the world, these illegible revolutions. The eternal woman, emerging from a dream world and imposing her delicate presence. All of Hedwige's sensitivity is revealed in these models of fragile appearance.

• But Hedwige's women are also contemporary, anchored in today's world whose codes and customs they appropriate. The mobile phone, for example, an essential instrument for professional life, romantic exchanges, and self-celebration. A nod to this consented addiction.

• In all of Hedwig's works the question arises whether the poetic image of the aspects and phases of women's lives, you or us, in this world today... It is our inner treasure and the artist represents it with great grace and poetry.

• A clean and personal style that highlights the beauty and personality of women in today's world. The artist looks at the world around her and reveals our habits and attitudes in her sculpture.
