VEHICULE PARTICULIER

Cyril Verde writes fictions, that are the base of his artistic production and are the boundaries of an imaginary world in which the artist evolves.

The sculpture that Cyril Verde plans for his residency is a big wood structure that would remind us of a big sport car. Intread of having wheels, this means of transportation will have legs, which give it an animal aspect and mobility. Using a simple mecanical technique the public will be able to start this mouvement. The upper part will looks like a four wheel car Lada NIVA, a legendary car created in the old USSR to be usefull in the wild russian landscapes. The lower part of the art piece is inspired by a wild boar, solitary animal, that travel a lot which you could find some tracks on the Grand Boise vineyard.
