About this artwork
This sculpture is modular, like all my sculptures. It is in polished wood (Ayouss and lime tree). It is made up of two parts of 34 elements each, symmetrical, arranged on either side of a central, fixed pivot element. These two parts are fixed by two nuts which will be used to block the figures produced during the thousands of possible modulations. Attention, with a possible wingspan of nearly one meter, the different modulations need space: Because…
of their modularity, these sculptures occupy a space larger than the material that composes them.

« "With the modularity of my sculptures, the spectator/collector is no longer just "looking". They become actors. I wrote the score, they become my interpreters." »
Jean Paul Boyer’s sculptures have been exhibited throughout his native France, Europe and China. Boyer continuously questions how to work with the air, or the “void”, that surrounds the material of the sculpture. He denies having a style, and allows himself the freedom to delve into all interpretations and techniques. His process starts by fabricating a model with any material he happens to have on hand, then the works evolve using wood, metal, marble, cardboard, etc.
