Half-organic, half-mechanical, Poisson vrille à la tailles ferrée seems to emerge from a universe where nature and metal merge into a single entity.
Here, Laurence Van Baren creates a hybrid creature, sculpted from a gnarled branch that gives the fish its spine, while fragments of wire and an old, rusty tool extend its silhouette with a rigid, intriguing tail. The bones, sketched in wood and metal, appear to float as if the animal were suspended, ready to undulate in an invisible current.
Anchored on a stone base, this enigmatic being evokes transformation, the memory of materials, and the way nature constantly reinvents its forms. A unique piece, at the crossroads of marine bestiary and the poetry of found objects.
