Creature n°10. Anima Mundi series 2021
Terracotta.
Anima Mundi is an ongoing series of sculptures realised during the numerous lockdown. It means the World's Soul, an ancient philosophical concept, in which all living beings and the inanimate part of the natural world are thought to have an inner soul.
It expresses wild, ecological consciousness and fascination for textures. It's a creature of the living world that has its feelings.
The breath is often investigated, in the movements of expansion and contraction, as well as the one that regulates life and death, concepts often found in her work, as a natural continuous cycle of life.
