Description
This artwork presents a captivating ceramic sculpture, both abstract and evocative. The face features a deliberate asymmetry, creating an intriguing visual interplay between organic forms and earthy hues. The undulating contours suggest shifting emotions, while the stylized eyes seem to follow the viewer, adding a mysterious dimension. Rough textures counterbalance the smooth curves, highlighting the artist's meticulous craftsmanship. The earthy color palette, with shades of ochre and brown, reinforces the impression of natural vitality. The overall appearance suggests a fusion between the human and animal face, evoking themes of duality and transformation. This sculpture commands attention with its originality and expressiveness, offering a unique visual experience that invites reflection on identity and nature.
Presentation
Raâk was born in Brittany, in the Finistère region, in 1940. At the age of sixteen, inhabited by malaise, she painfully leaves "the gast country" for the capital where her quest for the Grail begins.
1975: The year of reckoning. The path she had taken appeared to her as a total failure which made her struggle in a serious existential crisis. The "safety net" writing that she has always practised becomes powerless itself and is no longer of any help to her.
1976: Raâk discovers a free creative workshop in her neighbourhood where clay is offered as a therapeutic material. And this is the unlikely ascent towards life, which finds strange and jubilant passages through the pounding of her suffering. In his hands, obscure latent forces heaped up by thirty-six years of heartbeats explode.
