Two heads behind a monument – Alain Monvoisin
The figures fade away, swallowed up by the imposing mass of an abstract architecture. Two heads behind a monument questions the place of the individual in the face of structures that surpass him, whether historical, social or symbolic.
The monument, built of blocks in earthy tones – ochre, beige, brown – rises in the composition like an impenetrable fortress. In its shadow, the two heads seem barely visible, absorbed by this massive presence. Yet their absence becomes eloquent: are they crushed by the weight of the past or protected by this silent wall?
Monvoisin invites us to reflect on how history, ideologies or institutions shape identity. Two heads behind a monument is a work where matter dialogues with emptiness, where the visible hints at the invisible, in a subtle play between force and erasure.
