«  Le poisson est un symbole universel associé à l’eau.
J’ai voulu créer une oeuvre qui soit une célébration de la vie,
un clin d’oeuil à nos ancêtres véritables. Puisque toutes les formes
de vie que nous connaissons viennent de la mer, cette oeuvre vient
honorer, de façon ludique, les origines de la vie. »

Cette installation originale est composée de sept poissons stylisés,
aux ossatures d’acier peintes de couleur vives.

"Fish is a universal symbol associated with water.
I wanted to create a work that is a celebration of life,
a nod to our true ancestors. Since all forms
of life that we know come from the sea, this work comes
to honor, in a fun way, the origins of life. "

This original installation is composed of seven stylized fish,
with painted steel frames of bright color.
