What is elusive is, by definition, what cannot be seizd.
It is also the possibility, when there is no seizing, to open arms even wider.
- In life, there are all sorts of things that can be easily apprehended, understood. Then, there is all the rest... That cannot be grasped, the elusive. That is greater than our comprehension, than our ability to understand and outline. Thrust is elusive. So is the deep meaning of things. This is what this piece is about. It can be watched from all sides, and presents a constantly changing being. As the clay that the scuptor molds, the body is shaped and reshaped while spinning, showing briefly the multiple aspects of what it could become. Both multiple and singular.
"As a sparkle of desire that passes with silence."
(Jean-Pierre Colombi)The elusive draws its essence from the unspeakeable depth of fesh and from the abandon to fantasy : from what can be brievly perceived, when the scuptor, patient and tenacious, removes matter day after day to rich the depths of things and present the word, with the very spirit of what he means to say.
