sculpture - 2019
These giant spinning tops have become weapons for precision games and question recent happenings. How did they end up on this ground? How did they get stuck between dangerous instability and playful equilibrium? Who should take them and for what purpose? Perhaps “The child with the Spinning Top” painted by Chardin in 1735. Portrait of a child who, fascinated by this spinning top game, became calm, for the time of a painting. //////Defensive sculptures or reflections on a world in perpetual transformation, these objects show the capacity in each one of us to invent the best and also the worst.
