Marie-Jo BOURRON (1931-2012) Mermaid (517 ter) Bronze and rock crystal on mirror top Stamp of Ducros, Paris 12 x 27 x 38.5 cm Provenance : Galerie Terre de Arts, Paris. A certificate will be given to the purchaser. Note: This sculpture by Marie-Jo Bourron illustrates the artist's dreamlike, organic universe, combining mythological figures and mineral materials. The bronze mermaid, with its fluid, textured modelling, rests on a set of rock crystals arranged on a mirrored plate, creating a play of reflections and contrasts between metal and transparency. Cast by Ducros in Paris, this work testifies to the artist's technical mastery and taste for noble material combinations. It is a representative example of his sculptural production, at the crossroads of poetry and contemporary sculpture.
