Délicieuse attirance


I don't remember exactly  how, but I recently got invited to an art exhibit on a boat by the Eiffel Tower by these people. I had no idea of what I was going to find there and I was not really sure it would be worth it. And then I really fell in love with the sculptures by Aude de Bessac, two of which you can see in this photo... The one in the foreground is called Délicieuse attirance (delicious attraction) and, well, that is how I felt towards it when I saw it.

  6. I LOVE this sculpture! And also the one in the backgroung...
    How tall are they, Eric? There's no scale on your picture ;-)

    They could be 10 cm or 2m !! No idea!

  7. Great serendipity to be invited on that particular art tour. This sculpture is marvelous. (I am going to guess at Thib's question to you....she is perhaps two feet tall?)
