In Matriarch , Yiile transforms the Eiffel Tower into a protective and symbolic figure.
Standing in the heart of Paris, it appears as a maternal presence—strong, stable, unwavering. Bathed in golden light at sunset, it seems to watch over the city, enveloping the rooftops and urban silhouettes in a warm energy. The dramatic, vibrant sky intensifies this feeling of gentle power: a force that does not dominate, but guides.
The Tower is no longer just a monument; it has become an archetype. Like a loving mother, it protects, inspires, and uplifts. Its verticality suggests aspiration, ambition, and the courage to go further. Around it, the city expands, multifaceted and vibrant, sustained by this central presence.
Light plays a crucial role here: it "dresses" the structure, revealing its metallic texture while simultaneously enhancing it. This encounter between raw material and sunlight reflects Yiile's artistic vision—that of a potential that is revealed when one allows oneself to shine.
Through Matriarch , the artist celebrates feminine strength, guidance, and transmission. The work evokes protection, success, and the capacity of each individual to rise under the influence of benevolent energy.
