Isabelle Panelas-Huard’s sculpture “Macan” captures the power and grace of a majestic feline. Cast in bronze with meticulous attention to detail, the work exudes a palpable intensity, each line and curve paying homage to the animal’s quiet strength. The feline is frozen in a moment of subtle movement, muscles tense, eyes fixed on an invisible target, as if ready to pounce at any moment.
The raw texture of the bronze adds a tactile dimension that evokes the dense fur and robust skin of the beast, creating a captivating contrast between the rough surface and the smooth forms of the body. The play of light and shadow on the patinated bronze accentuates the depth and volume of the sculpture, giving the impression that the feline could come to life at any moment.
Isabelle Panelas-Huard, true to her commitment to the art of sculpture, masters every step of the process, from casting to the final patina. With "Macan", she reminds us of the untamed beauty of wild nature, a piece that is both powerful and elegant, ideal for enriching any interior or exterior space with a majestic and timeless presence.
