SUR MARS, IL N'Y A PAS DE SOLEIL (THERE IS NO SUN ON MARS)
Contemporary society moves in haste. It is driven by conquest, without considering other possibilities. Yet there is no sun on Mars.
Among traffic and passers-by, an alien sculpture assumes both a protective and confrontational stance. Holding an electronic heart in both hands, it transmits love.
15127 SECONDES BATTEMENTS DE COEUR
15,120 seconds: a life begins. Viewed from the front, a beating heart gradually emerges as one approaches the sculpture — a symbol of peace embodying the hope vested in future generations. On its reverse, inscriptions recount the barbarity of genocides, like scars etched into the skin. Inspired in its pose by the dancers of Edgar Degas, the sculpture confronts humanity with questions of love and death, beyond good and evil.
