"Oleg" by Benjamin Georgeaud
"Oleg" , a striking sculpture by Benjamin Georgeaud, illustrates the perfect mastery of the balance between strength and lightness. This monumental work, an impressive 150 cm high, represents an acrobat in full suspension, his graceful silhouette defying gravity with astonishing ease.
Sculpted with a precision that reveals every tense muscle, every curve of his athletic body, "Oleg" embodies the beauty and power of human agility. The body is posed on a single outstretched arm, the other arm and legs projected into the air, reaching daring heights. The sculpture rests on a narrow, elongated base, reminiscent of an ancient column or tower that rises into the air, suggesting the idea of both physical and spiritual ascension.
The texture of the sculpture, deliberately raw and rich in details, adds a dimension of tangible reality to this aerial figure, contrasting with the lightness of his posture. The acrobat seems to float, suspended in time and space, and yet firmly anchored to his base. This duality evokes a reflection on the nature of the artist himself: in constant search of balance, between tradition and innovation, solidity and fragility.
By placing the acrobat in a natural environment, against a green backdrop, Georgeaud creates a silent dialogue between man and nature, between the constructed world and the organic world. "Oleg" thus becomes a symbol of man's intrinsic connection with his environment, a tribute to perseverance, rigorous training and the endless quest for excellence.
This majestic sculpture is a must-have addition for any collector looking to enrich their space with a work that not only captures the eye, but also inspires deep reflection on the beauty of human movement and the power of will. “Oleg” is more than a sculpture; it is an invitation to meditate on the heights that the human spirit can reach, supported by discipline, ambition, and art.
