– In collaboration with sculptors Dominique Vial and Jonathan Hirschfeld, an internship in Paris.
Artistic approach:
Marie-Laure Gérard-Bécuwe works in wax. Once her figures become bronzes, they come to life freely or in steel structures.
Some are locked in huts, try to escape, fall, and get up again.
Between constraint and freedom, strength and fragility, balance and imbalance, they attempt to defy the burden of our daily lives and restore in all of us humor and poetry.
They are the source of stories that we may never know ho wit ends.
Her work is a kind of treatise on miniatures…
