Les triangles rectangles anthracites, qui constituent la surface du solide de révolution, ont été taillés un par un. Ils sont au nombre de 1060 unités environ.
La boule est simplement posée sur son socle en chêne et solidaire de celui-ci. La liaison est assurée par un scellement de ciment entre le support et quelques piques de céramique.
Les lampes halogènes, grandes consommatrices d’énergie, ont un effet joule important et nécessitent une ventilation statique. Des pièges à lumière ont été aménagés sur les parois latérales, afin que l’air puisse circuler librement.
L’éclairage basse tension déporté, fait partie intégrante de l’œuvre. Grâce à la géométrie descriptive, l’artiste formalise, anticipe, les intersections et les ombres entre les volumes, les surfaces et les cônes de lumière.
L’effet, sur la surface hérissée, est saisissant : allant du violet au bleu, la lumière chaude irisée des lampes halogènes, donne une connotation abstraite renforcée, à la sculpture. Le présentoir amovible en forme de Z, met l’objet particulièrement en valeur.
Pour ancrer davantage cette pièce dans l’espace et le temps, Philippe FARES joue de la relation entre la forme anguleuse du socle en chêne massif et l’aspect sphérique de C18.

Philippe Fares is a contemporary French artist, whose journey has been profoundly shaped by diverse cultures and the interplay of art and science. His unique perspective, honed by a childhood spent in sub-Saharan Africa, is a testament to his early exposure to the world of art, particularly the influence of Primitive Arts. Returning to France at the age of 16, Philippe embarked on a path that allowed him to cultivate his understanding of Western Arts while pursuing scientific studies.
Philippe Fares' artistic works are meticulously constructed using scientific methods and meticulous planning. His creations often feature a recurring tiling pattern, a meticulously balanced interplay with chance. This synthesis of meticulous design and the unpredictability of chance lends his works a dynamic and intriguing quality.
One of the defining features of Philippe's sculptures is his incorporation of light, whether through LED or Halogen sources. This infusion of light imbues each piece with a unique chromatic field, magnifying the contrast of the leading lines within the sculpture. Philippe understands that, in his art, what truly matters is the relationship between colors, dimensions, and positions. He views the proportion between the horizontal, the vertical, and the depth as a reflection of the three dimensions that envelop us, as well as the opposing forces that often govern life and space—the interplay between existence and non-existence, abundance and scarcity.
