About the Item
“Murmur” – A Ceramic Sculpture of Unity and Strength
“Murmur” depicts a herd of elephants in ceramic, captured in a fluid and harmonious motion, where each animal gently leans against the other, forming a composition filled with strength and tenderness. The metal bases and hand-forged iron tusks introduce a raw yet elegant dimension, reinforcing the bond between these majestic giants and the material that supports them.
Sculpted with rich details and authentic textures, the elephants embody memory, wisdom, and solidarity. Their arrangement conveys collective movement, a subtle dynamic where every gesture and contact seems to whisper a shared story—an echo of their deep bonds and connection to the Earth. The ceramic’s natural tones and imperfections bring each silhouette to life, while the handcrafted tusks provide a striking, organic contrast.
The metallic base, robust and timeless, evokes the foundations of an ancient civilization, reinforcing the idea of a bridge between collective memory and modernity. It anchors this moving herd, symbolizing the enduring strength of unity, even within the fragile balance of life.
“Murmur” is a deeply symbolic and poetic piece, celebrating the quiet power of a group in harmony. Ideal for contemporary art collectors and enthusiasts, this sculpture invites a universal reflection on solidarity, memory, and the beauty of life, while bringing a commanding yet soothing presence to any space.

Chartier Sébastien
Sébastien Chartier, sculpteur autodidacte, explore la relation entre l’humain, l’animal et la nature. Inspiré par les migrations, les civilisations anciennes et les symboles universels, il crée des sculptures figuratives en céramique et bronze, mêlant force et fragilité. Ses œuvres intègrent des socles en métal évoquant l’archéologie, prolongeant leur sens. Exposées dans des galeries françaises et collections privées internationales, elles invitent à réfléchir sur la trace laissée par l’humanité.
