About this artwork
In this terracotta work, I captured the innocence and curiosity of youth. Each line of this miniature hand evokes gentleness and hope, a gesture open to children's boundless imagination. She embodies a silent call for tenderness and human connection, and will add an energy of purity and renewal to any space she inhabits.

« Creating a lavish landscape where harmony reigns. »
Edith Simonnet, an award-winning French sculptor and painter, lets 'beauty impose its grammar' through her art. Her artistic principles align with those of Homer, as she considers manual labor a moment of grace, wherein a deity is at work. Simonnet describes herself as a 'craftsman of beauty, a potter or poet, and a tailor of images'. Her subjects made of earth, oil, and ink are transformed into plaster and bronze.
