▷ Young philosopher by Sophie Verger, 2020 | Bronze Sculpture for Sale New Release

A big book of Sophie Verger offered. It is a very old story, perhaps a myth, perhaps not, when the earth was a garden where they lived in peace, an era of harmony and of games: the childhood of the world. It was a time when the children of men learned to speak the language of the seal, even before the forces of nature incarnates themselves sometimes in the hippopotamus, sometimes in the crocodile. It is here that Sophie Verger guides us, among the beasts of the museum, in a tranquil world where peace and carefree bliss reign… carefree, it is necessary to brave the Laws of Gravity as her models often do: where art reigns, with a vigorous trunk nothing is impossible. Sophie Verger sculpts poems, whole tales in one piece… All these stories that make us grow, this need to constantly rediscover the time when naivety was protecting us and instinct was our guide, but also all this spontaneous joy, this humor and this tenderness which she sculpts in the details of the gesture. Sophie Verger offers both the subject of our childhood and a primitive reminder to the child who remains in us, to return to that essential of life after which we run, all of us every day. Sophie Verger is a fairy who knows how to transform an emotion into an animal, a sensation, a feeling in a recollected memory. She combines these anthropomorphic being and mixes the human and the animal world in surprising ways.
