Little Sigh is part of the ONDE series and is intended as an injunction.
It is a suspended sculpture made of black lacquered wire, resulting from a process of translating sound into form. At the origin of this piece is a word—the word Soupir (Sigh)—spoken by myself, recorded, then transformed into a sound wave. This signal, once stretched and reworked, becomes the starting point for a drawing, then a hand-meshed volume. When suspended, the sculpture has a fine, taut shape that evokes a line of sound, like a breath flowing from top to bottom or vice versa.
This series questions the relationship between language and matter and literally gives body to a word in a fragile and vibrant form.
