Orderly Fun
To say that Céline Charuau’s work is unique seems like an understatement. Her work can look rather threatening in form while other times is has a light ethereal beauty. So this piece I thought was quite different, not just for polymer art but for Céline as well; this reminds me of a child’s toy in color and shape, orderly but a little less serious than I usually associate with her work.
It’s not that Celine doesn’t do fun pieces, but the ‘fun’ pieces are either more contemporary or off-kilter . However, the stylized floral shape and the additions reaching out from the base form are pure Celine.
If you are not familiar with her work, it’s about time you were. I’d say. I think you will be surprised by what you’ll find–here is her website and Flickr page to investigate. And yes, the work you’ll see is all polymer with metal and wire–nothing more that I am aware of. She has a bit of crazy artistic genius if you ask me and I think it’s just wonderful.
