FAUTEUIL

Artist : Moise MARTHELY Date création/Creation time : 2010 Matériaux /Materials : Chateaupanne limestone Description : This carved sculpture represents what cities are looking for today. It is a massive base, which raises the forbidden of parking by civilizing it in a piece of art with seats. The ban remains, but the person who rests on it opens the language with the material and its veining. It is a big step between the censorship that revolts and the peace that calms the spirit.

The sculptor has notably worked with neighborhood teams, which has led to exhibitions in Nantes, Paris, Saint-Herblon... He also transforms parking rocks into works of art. Description : AN ARMCHAIR (Châteaupanne limestone) This carved sculpture represents what cities are looking for today. It is a solid base that raises parking interdiction; it becomes a work of art where you can seat. There is still interdiction but the one who rests can start a conversation with the matter and its veining. It is a great leap between revolting censorship and peace that soothes the soul Presentation of the artist and his/her approach : Moïse Marthely is a stone carver who lives in the Loire-Atlantique department. He makes stone furniture and urban designs for parks and gardens. He worked together with neighbourhood teams, and this led to exhibitions in Nantes, Paris or Saint-Herblon. He also changes parking rocks into works of art.
