CHAVANIS Stephan: sculpture contemporary art, suspension of the fragments and remainders of the body  - nails

 

The suspension of the remains of the body, returns us under our animal condition preliminary to our human condition. The hairs, nails, or blood and the flesh belong to the animals but also to the «animal» which is in
us. These sculpture-supports conceived to carry «the unbearable one», are attempts in order to reverse in a way symbolic system and transitory
the court of the things.

Here, it is the conscience which carries (materially) the body and its remains and not the reverse.
