**Impacts** by Alain Vuillemet is a monumental work that seems to capture the power of a shock, both brutal and sublime, frozen in time. Rising to an impressive height of 3.50 meters, this sculpture in satin stainless steel presents hollows and bumps that evoke the force of physical impacts, metaphors for the trials that matter – and perhaps life itself – must go through to achieve transformation. Each deformation of the metal surface tells a story, a dialogue between the brutality of the process and the beauty of the result.
Vuillemet's work on this piece recalls his unique mastery of steel. Using industrial techniques, he manages to infuse this rigid material with a fluid, almost organic appearance. The reflections on the satin stainless steel vary according to the light, creating hypnotic visual effects, as if the metal surface were in perpetual motion. **Impacts** thus becomes a work that is both static and alive, offering a new experience with each glance.
Priced at €27,000, this sculpture is a one-of-a-kind piece, ideal for an outdoor space where its imposing size and form can truly shine. **Impacts** is not just a work of art; it is a meditation on resistance and resilience, a tribute to how the forces of nature – or humanity – can shape the world around us.
With only one remaining example, this sculpture embodies the essence of Vuillemet's work: a perfect fusion of industrial technique and a deeply poetic artistic expression.
