Skull of a taut man with pressure gauges in the brain. The original in steel is the property of Mr. Gérard Depardieu.
Stress by Thierry Benenati is a striking work that explores tension and inner pressure through a modern interpretation of a human skull. This skull, inspired by the Tautavel Man, is made of bronze with a rough surface that captures the raw and primitive essence of humanity. Embedded in the skull cap are a series of pressure gauges that testify to the accumulated pressure, symbolizing the omnipresent stress of modern life. Each gauge seems ready to explode, reflecting the invisible weight of responsibilities and emotions.
What makes this work even more remarkable is its steel original, which belongs to Mr. Gérard Depardieu, the illustrious French actor. The steel version, with its industrial sheen and visual power, gives the sculpture a special aura, enhancing its symbolism and emotional reach.
