Whale
In Whale duo, Sylvie Bourdeau captures the beauty of two whales swimming in perfect symbiosis. The two creatures seem suspended in time, evolving in a silent underwater dance. Unlike his other works, this sculpture uses brilliant green ceramic, giving whales a unique appearance that captures light in a subtle way, reinforcing the impression of fluidity.
This work is in line with Sylvie's marine explorations, such as Grouper, where it also expresses the grace and majesty of aquatic animals. The choice of the shinier ceramic in Whale duo accentuates the idea of a luminous immersion, as if the two whales were evolving in a space bathed in natural underwater light.
