Women sculptors in contemporary art are very rare. And you will be surprised to learn that there are still much more of them than women painters. So, Frenchwoman Natalie Seguin is a world-renowned sculptor, created her own amazing world of dynamic images, frozen in bronze. It is hard to believe that her fragile female hands are capable of creating surprisingly harmonious, at first glance weightless sculptures from solid material that captivate the viewer with grace and skill.
French sculptor Nathalie Seguin was born in 1964 in Angers, in western France. The daughter of the artist, brought up in a creative environment, early joined the art. She was especially good at work related to the transformation of materials - silk, wood, stone and other natural raw materials.
Over time, transformation has grown into creation. The sculptor found material for herself that revealed all her talent, all her talent. She began to create amazing bronze sculptures that brought her fame not only in her homeland, but also far beyond its borders.
Natalie's skill was especially vividly manifested in the series of works "Dancers". All the heroines of this sculptural series are captured in the energetic rhythm of the dance. Their bodies, frozen for a moment in bronze, make an amazing impression: sometimes it seems that the dancer will flutter a little bit, and sometimes she will fall, losing her delicate balance.
Dresses floating in the air give the images an extraordinary weightlessness; they seem to complement the dynamics of body movement and create the illusion of a vortex. Small folds of silk clothes gently fit the perfect forms of the girls, emphasizing the gracefulness and mastery of her body. The edges of the clothes seem to flutter, then taking off, and then sinking under the gusts of an invisible wind.
Throughout her creative career, Natalie Seguin has received numerous international awards, prizes, medals and awards. Her works from this series and many others are known in wide circles of connoisseurs of this art form.
Continuing the theme of modern women sculptors, the stunning work of Anna Chromi, a sculptor from the Czech Republic. Famous "Cloak of Conscience" and no less famous fountain "Czech Musicians" in Prague - the creation of the hands of this fragile woman.
