About this artwork

This highly symbolic sculpture had until then been part of the artist's private collection. It is the topicality of what it represents today that decided the latter to show it and share it.
This piece of solid beech was carved and then charred.
Its verticality and the great sobriety of its lines make it both woman and openness to the future. It is a strong message of life and of faith in life.
This piece simultaneously offers the strong presence… of raw material and the lightness brought to it by this multitude of openings, drops of light. Crossed by lights, it projects a lace of shadows on the ground or on the walls.
It is presented on a simple raw metal base of 41 x 15 cm, but its lightness also allows it to be hung on the wall.

« Trying to reach the essential, in all its simplicity, humility and authenticity. Attempt to touch my own authenticity. »

Whether painting, sculpting or writing, Marc Laffolay strives for a direct, meditative and impulsive gesture.
He strives to banish any intervention of the mind, to privilege the spontaneous act, sincerity, without conscious reference to fashions and other trends.
For him, these are the conditions of authenticity.
