About this artwork
Female bust in pewter metal alloy with aged chrome leaf effect on metal base.
Its cut and the way of being cast give the impression of being in front of an ancient statue damaged by time but which despite the crossing of the centuries has retained all its beauty.

« It is all about leaving a trace on the earth. »
Alain Manton is a nationally distinguished french sculptor. With his astonishing sculptures, made of recycled materials and applied silver and gold leaves, he illustrated the beauty of female bust. The idea for this project derived from taking a cast of his wife's torso, who underwent cancer. His sculptures evoque antique and rough aspects, while preserving the bodies beauty.
