Description
This bronze work depicts two slender female figures standing in a contemplative pose. The sculptor chose a patinated green, giving the silhouettes a captivating texture and depth. Each figure evokes a sense of calm and reflection, their faces slightly turned toward the sky. The flowing drapes of their garments emphasize an elegant harmony, creating a fascinating play of light and shadow. The elongated, almost ethereal contours accentuate a sense of latent movement, as if the figures were about to come to life. The work's apparent simplicity belies an emotional complexity, evoking themes of spirituality and human connection. This masterpiece inevitably draws the eye with its elegance and mystery, inviting introspective contemplation.
Presentation
Sophie Mathilde Tauss has lived and worked since 1986 in the Vexin, near Auvers-sur-Oise.
She divides her time between her profession as a psychiatrist-psychotherapist, sculpture (modeling and stone cutting), yoga and "la maison à tonton" a therapeutic home for psychically handicapped patients.
Sophie-Mathilde Tauss has a personality that is out of the ordinary: she is a creator who expresses herself through an impressive body of work, but she is also a person overflowing with energy and activities, always carrying ambitious projects. She found her vocation for sculpture in July 1980, while visiting a potter's workshop on the island of Siphnos, Greece. Responding to an impulse, she took a ball of clay and began to shape it into the body of Aphrodite. Since then, she has not stopped sculpting. Some of her characters emerge from the gangue in which they were engulfed with this irresistible power that evokes Rodin. She is a great lady who pursues the permanent quest for a harmonious balance between body and mind.
My artistic research," she writes, "has led me from theater to sculpture, which I practice in conjunction with my work as a psychiatrist and psychoanalyst. But all this goes in the same direction".
