About

This sculpture entirely made of bronze. The eggs are patinated with a marble blue color while the nest is patinated with a mix of golden, green and brown colors. Executed through a contemporary approach, it has become the artist’s signature piece, showing the fragility of nature. Poetry in Motion The grace and beauty of birds in flight has inspired a great of variety of artistic interpretations. Eric Tardif's wood sculptures capture the elegant and graceful movements of birds through abstract expression. But unlike most abstract art, Tardif's designs draw from a lifetime of close observation of these feathered creatures. Eric's close encounters with birds inspired a creative desire to convey their beauty through art. To achieve this, Eric adapted an ancient technique called "steam bending" to realize his visions. Steam bending is a process in which heat vapor is used to make wood slats pliable for builders. It was originally used to build boats and bows, as it allowed the wood to be shaped into curvaceous structures. Eric saw in this technique the perfect medium for his artistic ambitions, and he began experimenting with different kinds of woods such as walnut, maple, ash, and cherry. The results of his labor are exquisite abstract sculptures that reveal the gracious shapes and forms. As Eric himself explains, “Each of the pieces I create is produced to reveal the intricate poetry of bird life in its many forms. I have always aimed, in my interpretation and production of art, to render the sacred space of a secular world into sculptures”
