About this artwork
Why ?
"I don't know ... Maybe with downcast eyes
of this incredibly beautiful woman.
A mirror ?
An attitude.
Contained violence,
a light density.
A pagan and naked pieta. A mother who watches without giving up being a woman. A vestal without a tunic that protects the sacred fire. "

« 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.
