Created for the 2018 L’Homme Sauvage Festival, the King’s Mask is a monumental wooden sculpture. As a guardian figure, it embodies the symbolic power of archetypes: a blend of sovereignty, mystery, and ancestral heritage. Installed at the entrance to the site, it was the first sight visitors encountered upon arrival, acting as the guardian of the site and the festival. It establishes a dialogue between the public, the pagan event, and nature.
Monumental sculpture
“What is so exciting about monumental sculpture is that it can engage in direct dialogue with a group of men and women, rather than isolated individuals; in this respect, I find it has a primary media function, in both the ancestral and fundamental sense, where the meta-object addresses the ‘tribe’ of spectators directly, creating a transpersonal dimension.”
Erected in the heart of the Comminges région for the L’Homme Sauvage Festival, The Pilgrim is a monumental sculpture, 5.30 meters tall, crafted from recycled materials (wood, metal, and fabric). It embodies the female wayfarer – fragile yet powerful – as a symbol of connection to nature and a bond between people.
