Cécile Raynal
Vestibule des pommes (with Martin) by Cécile Raynal - Stoneware sculpture, man

2015

About the Item

Vestibule des pommes (with Martin) is a unique smoke-fired stoneware sculpture by French contemporary artist Cécile Raynal, dimensions are 46 × 57 × 19 cm (18.1 × 22.4 × 7.5 in). Dimensions include wooden base (oak). This sculpture is a unique piece signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity. This young man's sandstone portrait, burned with smoke, rests on a wooden base. The raw emotion captured in Cecile Raynal's portraits is a universal language that cannot be spoken. Above all, her figures are identifiable due to their extreme expressiveness. This piece of art is a part of Cecile Raynal's one-of-a-kind collection called Les Ombres d'Alice. In order to offer the inhabitants of strange locations and universes a voice, the artist enjoys immersing herself in them. She thus challenges us to dream. Cécile Raynal uses sculpture as a way of exploring the world, between documentary and fiction. Thus she often sets up her workshop in remote, forgotten or marginal places, that she goes over and then reconstructs in clay. A prison, a retirement home, a hospital, a convent, a cargo-ship… are among the places in which she invites the inhabitants to pose for her, so as to sculpt their portraits and capture these rare encounters.
