Courlis cendré (2021) Sculpture by Fabienne Quenard

Fabienne Quenard is a contemporary French sculptor. She conveys her self-expression through the art of sculpture, utilizing wire to meticulously craft distinctive and tailor-made pieces in three-dimensional form by hand. Her artistic creations draw inspiration from the captivating style of Alexander Calder. Quenard skillfully employs two distinct styles in her sculpting process. In one style, she deliberately opts for a refined and graphic approach, utilizing minimal lines to portray the subject matter. In contrast, her other style is characterized by denser and more intricate details, emphasizing a figurative aesthetic to capture expressions more vividly.

The delicacy of the wire grants it a result akin to a drawing, as the artist focuses on capturing lightness, transparency, and the graceful flow of clean lines. This aspect holds utmost importance for the artist. This material enables them to breathe life into their imaginative creations, playing with curves and spirals in unique pieces. With this thread, they skillfully express their sensitivity, extending into infinite space. The artist follows the continuous line, drawing and writing subjects of diverse nature until a body, a form, takes shape.
