Sculpture representing a female bust in bronze lace covered with 24-carat gold leaf.
With Golden Dawn, I wanted to evoke a moment of birth, when the light seems to appear for the first time.
The sculpture takes the form of a female bust made using my metal lace technique, where the bronze unfolds here in a rounder and more organic structure.
The material seems to have melted and then frozen in time. It sometimes evokes natural lace, almost like caramel that has slowly stretched before crystallizing. I like this impression of transformation, as if the material has retained the memory of its movement.
The shape of the bust opens downward into a triangular structure that, for me, evokes a matrix, a place of origin. This soft geometry suggests the idea of a beginning, a possible birth.
The bronze is entirely covered with 24-carat gold leaf. The gold captures the light and diffuses it through the metal lace, creating a luminous vibration that changes depending on the viewer and the space around the sculpture.
In my work, I like the material to remain open, pierced by air and light. The sculpture is never completely closed: it breathes, it dialogues with its surroundings.
With Golden Dawn, I wanted the metal to become almost a nascent light:
a soft and organic presence, suspended between origin, body, and radiance.
