Description
Artwork created in white marble, gold powder and Klein blue pigment.
This intriguing sculpture presents a composition of geometric and organic forms, capturing a precarious and captivating balance. The harmonious marriage of materials contrasts sharply, with a raw stone base surmounted by a stack of semi-abstract shapes. The upper section, tinted a vibrant blue, immediately draws the eye, creating a visual tension with the neutral tones of the base. The delicate handling of textures highlights the artist's skill in combining subtlety and boldness. This work, both minimalist and intense, pushes the traditional boundaries of modern sculpture by playing on fragility and stability. It invites the viewer to contemplate the notion of balance in a world often unbalanced.
Presentation
Born in 1953 in the Venezuelan Andes, Iris Vargas studied at the School of Anthropology in Venezuela and the National School of Fine Arts in Caracas and Paris. She has lived and worked in the Paris region since 1979.
She sculpts marble and all kinds of stone directly, developing movement and contrast. Women are her favourite subject. Since 1991, her exploration of materials has led her to develop a personal style, which she calls 'Marbres Sauvages' (Wild Marbles). In this style, she creates a rhythm between the stability of the structures and the ingenious arrangement of mobile variations.
Thanks to her knowledge of stone, Iris Vargas has been called upon to participate in the restoration of historic monuments such as the Louvre, Les Invalides and the National Archives.
She exhibits regularly in France, at the Carrousel du Louvre, the Salon d'Automne, and the Jardin du Luxembourg, as well as abroad in Heidelberg, Germany, Switzerland, the Salon d'Automne, and XIAN in China. She has been listed in the Bénezit catalogue since 1999.
