Original artwork description:
Foldingue is a funny and unusual ethnic sculpture, made from two very special natural materials: tinderbox wood on one side, dried seaweed root on the other, both worked by time and abandoned in a corner of a forest or beach... The whole is completed with surfaced wood cellulose where necessary, then stained with water-soluble oil paint.
A light coat of marine varnish is applied at the end to fix the materials and protect the work.
Foldingue represents a kind of boulder dog with stringy butterfly ears...
It belongs to the Ostreides series, which expresses the complexity of life in its search for the most appropriate form for survival, as well as the wisdom of the mind applied to the transformation of matter.
Dimensions with base: H 14 x W 15 x D 12 cm
Signed under one leg.
Materials: tinderbox wood, dried seaweed root wood, surfaced wood cellulose, water-soluble oil paint, protective marine varnish.
Materials used:
forest wood, wood surfine cellulose, water soluble oil paint, varnish
