Phoebe Scott

Phoebe scott
Sculptor
Location: US

His work focuses on the body and the story it tells of its existence. Phoebe imprints on the cycle of human life and on the vulnerability of the body, as untamable as we seem. She was pierced by my own body and the bodies of others, especially those who have been marginalized by our society. Also, she is interested in the way society sees women. In particular, during life, from childhood to fertility through infertility. Attracted by the traction belt of the muscles, the skin both tight and loose. The bone support that is most clearly revealed by the elderly. Truncation is a theme of his work because of its power and cultural relevance that society wants to see. What is she hiding and excising.

It is opposed to the concept of the ideal body.

How does the truncation reveal how women’s bodies are discussed in parts and pieces? With clay, she is able to edit and shape what is integral to the story. Then, she opposes the concept of the ideal body. As shown in sculpture throughout history and throughout life. Especially since in our culture the ideal body seems to be the only one that is truly authorized. Even for the ideal female body, this permission comes from those in power, not from the woman herself. Body portraits reflect the world that rises around each of our bodies. In a unique and changing way over time. The body is a commentary on the world around it.

Alejandro Almanza Pereda

Alejandro Almanza Pereda
Sculptor
Location: Mexico / United State

Alejandro Almanza Pereda was born in 1977 in Mexico City. Previously, he worked in New York, and currently lives and works between the United States and Mexico. Now its practice in both places.

Looking for vintage items. In flea markets and thrift stores. Almanza Pereda incorporates mundane materials into large-scale sculptures that challenge both the durability of the items and her ability to create a stable structure. His frequent use of neon tubes, for example. Is in part due to his interest in fragility. The simultaneous resistance of these objects which break easily but, in certain positions, can withstand significant pressures.

Inspired by the objects he selects, Almanza Pereda avoids narrative. He prefers to focus on materiality. Although his work is influenced by Dutch still life painting. Almanza can touch the surrealist. Particularly in more recent works which experiment with underwater photography.

Daniel Arsham

Daniel Arsham
Sculptor
Location: New-York (US)

Daniel Arsham’s uchronic aesthetic revolves around his concept of fictional archeology. Working in sculpture. Architecture. Drawing and cinema. It creates and crystallizes ambiguous intermediate spaces or situations. Arsham stages what he calls future relics of the present. They are eroded casts of modern artifacts and contemporary human figures. He expertly manufactures from geological materials such as sand. Selenite or volcanic ash to make it appear as if it had just been discovered after being buried for centuries. Always emblematic, most of the objects that he transforms into stone refer to the end of the 20th century or to the millennial era. When technological obsolescence has accelerated unprecedentedly with the digital dematerialization of our world. While the present. The future and the past collide poetically in his haunted visions. Playful between romanticism and pop art, Daniel Arsham also experiments with the timelessness of certain symbols and gestures across cultures.

Ai Weiwei

Ai Weiwei
Sculptor, installlation

Location: Beijing (China)

Born in 1957 in Beijing, Ai Weiwei is a multidisciplinary artist who is as much a sculptor as an architect or even a photographer. He studied cinema at the Beijing Film Academy and then studied at Parsons The New School for Design in New York. The artist lives and works in Beijing but has several years in the United States. In fact, in the early 1980s, he moved to New York to photograph scenes from everyday life. Capture the habits and lifestyles of its inhabitants. He returned to Beijing to continue this practice in 1993. Through his work, he managed to paint a portrait of a country. Of its population by reflecting everyday life. But also the mores and customs of societies.

Unconventional and provocative.

His work is vast, unconventional. Provocative and earned him retaliation. Arrested by the Chinese government in 2011 for tax evasion, it is more for his activism and for his criticism of Chinese society. He broadened the evolution of the social reality of his country. His art is a testament to his perception of the world and its challenges. He now goes through social networks to disseminate his positions. It publishes photos and texts and thus manages to reach a diffuse population with its many subscribers.

Osang Gwon

Osang Gwon

Sculptor

Location: Seoul (South Korea)

Osang Gwon

Sculptor

Osang Gwon’s mission is to demolish the line that separates the medium of sculpture from that of photography. He accumulates photographs to build sculptural forms. He sets up sculptural forms to compose photographs. Gwon relishes the ambiguity that confuses the viewer. Is his work two-dimensional or three-dimensional? Or both simultaneously?

This creative method fuels the artist’s fascination with modern marketing. Shiny appearances and consumer culture. He derives themes and extracts motifs as the subject of his works. Academically trained in sculpture, Gwon has aroused interest in the circles of sculptors as well as photographers.

Deodorant Type.

Dedicated to his most famous series, “Deodorant Type”, the book Gwon, Osang: The Sculpture was published by the Arario Gallery. His work can be found in numerous local and international exhibitions. As well as in publications that present and present contemporary Korean art. Gwon has organized solo exhibitions in South Korea, the United States and the United Kingdom. Her work was featured in the international traveling exhibition, Roundabout, which traveled from New Zealand to Israel.
