Delphine Grandvaux
"Froufrou I", Black Metal Pendant Hand-Woven Airy Sculpture

2021

About the Item

Titled "Froufrou I", this airy sculpture is hand-woven by artist Delphine directly from metal wire. Froufrou refers to the sounds of the beating of the wings of birds when they take flight, and also to the soft rustling sounds of women's tulle petticoats. This piece is to be hung from the ceiling. Delphine Grandvaux is a French sculptor. Motivated by her desire to create light and airy artworks, she found her way to express creatively in a unique artistic approach, based on a similar technique of mesh from the metal wire as Ruth Asawa. In the woven works of Delphine Grandvaux, the metallic threads, sometimes associated with other light materials like wood, wool, etc., seem to be tamed by the power of her technique and by her freedom of imagination. They transform themselves under the hands of the artiste into voluminous organic and dynamic forms, fine and refined, with fluid movements inside as well as outside the artwork. Playing with light and shadow, the transparent or semi-transparent forms created by the artist are truly evocative of poetry, delicacy, and elegance.
