Description
signature and numbered H.C. 1/3 engraved on the reverse
“From a square formed by six regular rectangles, the artist has explored all the possibilities silver offers to play with light on its surface: by being either polished, brushed, sanded, matt, etc.
The order in the presentation of these different surfaces was then determined by throwing a dice, a way of exploring random chance that is at the core of the artist’s practice.
Edition realized in collaboration with the MiniMasterpiece Gallery.”
– Bernard Chauveau / 8+4 Gallery
