Description
This captivating artwork depicts a dreamlike creature standing majestically. The sculpture skillfully blends animal and fantastical elements. Its sculpted, enigmatic, and profound eyes invite contemplation. The textured fur, adorned with delicate fringes, lends the figure a mysterious elegance. The luxuriant tail adds another dimension to the composition, creating a harmonious balance between softness and structure. Unique in its use of textured materials, this piece transcends realism to offer a surreal vision. The monochromatic aesthetic reinforces the purity and serenity of the whole. Through its originality and refinement, this sculpture inspires wonder and personal interpretation.
Presentation
Lara Blanchard lives and works in France. After studying art in Strasbourg, she settled first in Ireland, then in the French Alps. In her house, set against the forest, facing the mountains, she never ceases to maintain her relationship with the magic of nature and the living, to question what she calls "the universal magic".
Her prints on textile from the series of « Animal Souls » are largely inspired and nourished by her observations and encyclopaedias of botany, zoology, anatomy and entomology, which she approaches in a naturalist poetic way. The life sciences have always accompanied her from a very young age. She has found her graphic vocabulary there. In 2011, she obtained her first engraving press… Her drawings become then prints. She chooses the textile support which will allow her to apply the colour by hand, using a traditional technique of hand embroidery...
Through a work of embroidered engravings and a large project of sculptures / ornaments / masks started in 2017 that she calls AD LUCEM (still in progress), she explores humanity in all its primary, primitive even. And notes this ambiguous relationship we have with our animality.
The French Arts Factory represents the artist on a permanent basis and will present her AD LUCEM sculptures in November 2021 at the Montreux Art Gallery 2021.
