Christine LARIVIERE - Sculptor

Christine Larivière is perfectly familiar with the contours of the face, the harmony of the body and, while mastering matter and resemblances, she adds the visual artist's vital ingredient: emotion!

These bodies, busts, and faces that she draws from inert mass; Christine Larivière outlines and carves astonishing vitality into them, in part due to her skills but also to this determined talent that she employs so magnificently. She instills such ardour into her bronzes that, far from being slavish copies, they bring out expressions, postures and a whole host of details that reveal a captivating human presence. They represent an unsettling and fascinating definition of the senses, from whence stems the sensual beauty of these bodies and the almost surrealist strangeness of the expressive busts.

It's remarkable!
