With "Invitation to Travel", Bérénice Fourmy invites us into a delicate world where leaving is not an escape but a promise of discovery. This 24 x 15 x 12 cm sculpture in patinated terracotta sits on a base of charred oak, a raw, deep material that grounds the scene in a timeless atmosphere.
A barefoot feminine figure gazes toward an unseen horizon, absorbed in distant thoughts. Beside her, a small terracotta suitcase suggests the anticipation of a journey, an adventure about to begin. A bird perched on her shoulder completes the scene, symbolizing freedom, guidance, and whispered secrets.
This artwork beautifully captures the hesitation between staying and leaving, the moment when travel dreams begin to take shape. The character’s posture, both serene and contemplative, evokes transition—an invitation to the unknown.
The contrast between the softness of the patinated terracotta and the roughness of the charred oak amplifies this duality between grounding and movement. The small suitcase, simple yet meaningful, tells silent stories: dreams of departure, imagined journeys, paths yet to be walked.
Available online at Galerie Bouillon d’art, "Invitation to Travel" is a perfect piece for lovers of poetic, minimalist, and evocative art. Ideal for intimate spaces, it invites contemplation and a longing for exploration. A piece that speaks to the soul, where each viewer can project their own dreams of travel and discovery.
