Fallen Figure
Passionate about archeology and fragments of history, Simone Fattal places the concept of memory at the heart of her reflections. By manipulating the earth, the artist creates gauche figures, where the body becomes the landscape for tiny hills, under the pressure of her fingertips. The works she creates, with a technique reminiscent of that used in the work of Postman Cheval, delicately realize a timeless, intricate jumble, which intertwines ancient history, archeological culture, and the contemporary world.
