Description

This intriguing work presents a series of human figures sculpted from driftwood. Each silhouette, unique in form and texture, seems to tell a distinct story, evoking a sense of togetherness or community. The figures are arranged against a background of driftwood, adding depth and contrast to the composition. The use of driftwood lends an organic and natural dimension, while the varied hues, ranging from beige to dark brown, accentuate the character and individuality of each figure. The work's apparent simplicity conceals a complexity in the arrangement of forms and the patina of the wood, bearing witness to the passage of time. This captivating work prompts reflection on diversity and unity, while celebrating the imperfect beauty of natural materials.

Presentation

Catherine Eon, a sculptor who works with driftwood and other reclaimed wood that has been 'abandoned', lives in Les Sables d'Olonne.

Drawn to these materials, her walks along the seashore led her to collect and then work with these pieces of wood, each one carrying with it a past, a journey, a sensitivity, a memory... Her minimalist sculptures remain faithful to the already fragile material, creating silhouettes that wander, meet, wait... Whether in bas-reliefs or sculptures, all these pieces of wood, large and small, bark, planks and plywood gleaned from the beach, are 'bits of life', souls, stories and faces marked by the scars of life and the passing of time. They remind us of their primary nature as wood, noble or not, 'the tree as a symbol of life', guardian of our memory and its close relationship with man. The important place of the tree in the work attempts to raise our awareness of environmental issues.
