About this artwork
This artwork embodies the delicate balance between weight and lightness, materialized by the hesitant suspension of a raw, white form. I wanted to evoke silent tension, suspended time, while infusing it with a delicate poetry that invites meditation. It will bring a contemplative energy to your space, a breath of calm and introspection, an intimate dialogue between matter and emptiness.
I appreciate knowing that gravity does its job without any… other human intervention. Natural forces are at work, and we observe.
I initially made the mass out of solid plaster, but it was too heavy for the lightweight wooden construction. So I started again, joining two empty half-shells... and it worked!

Yves Minssart, painter, draftsman, and sculptor, draws on his background as an architect and his passion for art history to explore primarily drawing, metal engraving, and sculpture, while grounding his approach in a profound experience of minimalism influenced by Zen. His style combines abstraction, dreamlike imagery, and subtle textures, sketching plays of rhythm and bare forms reminiscent of surrealist universes. His work invites contemplation of enigmatic spaces, revealing solitude, fragility, and the sensitive search for a place in the world.
