I am an apple tree plant
Caroline Kennerson – Ceramic, biscuit – 23 x 7 x 8 cm – 2023
A fragment of nature, frozen in matter and time.
With Je suis végétal pommier , Caroline Kennerson captures the essence of the fruit tree in the delicacy of a sculpted leaf. This work, of minimalist elegance, reveals all the poetry of life through the precise contours and the subtle engraving of the veins, evoking the breath of nature. The soft, satiny whiteness of the ceramic biscuit gives this leaf a timeless and immaculate character, like a preserved imprint of a bygone plant world.
Mounted on a metal rod delicately anchored in a raw base, the sculpture seems to rise, light and fragile, while asserting its sculptural presence. The verticality of the work, almost solemn, reminds us of the importance of the balance between strength and fragility in nature.
Caroline Kennerson, true to her exploration of the themes of fragility and interdependence of life, invites us here to contemplate the humble beauty of a leaf, often ignored, but essential. Each detail whispers to us a story of growth, resilience and harmony.
A delicate and refined object, ideal for bringing a touch of serenity and sublime nature to a contemporary or refined space.
