Description
Work created in white and black marble, blue pigment and gold powder.
This intriguing sculpture harmoniously blends diverse textures and colors to captivate the viewer. At its heart, a head sculpted in black stone contrasts boldly with a vibrant blue draped turban, adding a dimension of majesty and mystery. The smooth, abstract face evokes timeless serenity. Set upon a rough white stone base, it lends a natural stability to the whole. A captivating detail lies in the finely engraved gilded section at the center, where geometric patterns add a touch of refined sophistication. This work embodies a fusion of cultures and styles, evoking both tradition and modernity. The juxtaposition of elements symbolizes a dialogue between past and present, austerity and opulence, creating a uniquely harmonious and evocative piece.
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.
