Plénitude


Look what I found in the Bercy area, an area where I rarely go. This stunning statue by Florence de Ponthaud-Neyrat called Plénitude. Plénitude means fullness and I really think the artist did a fantastic job expressing this feeling through her sculpture. Of course the water helps too (this "pond" actually belongs the the Pullman hotel), but even without it you can feel this "fullness". Also, I like the contrast between the modern, square bulding in the background and the smooth curves of the lady ( I was also lucky to have a little ray of sun in the back when I took the photo. have a nice Friday everyone.

  9. Vraiment, elle est une très belle sculpture, mais plus que sembler Plénitude, elle semble vide ou solitude. Peut-être la plénitude vient donne par la lumière, le couleur bleue, le lieu, et etrê admiré pour des regards comme la tien.
