About the Item

This piece is titled 'Aquagraphie' in French which translates to 'Water Writing'. A rectangular, steel outdoor sculpture in black is divided into three parts, like a puzzle, the edges polished and reflective. This seven-foot upright is mirrored in three reflective steel puddle shapes installed at its base. Inspired by the graphic design of river maps, the sculpture charts a course of movement and reflection in steel within the natural environment. This work is editioned number 1 out of 9. It is available by commission requiring 4 to 6 weeks for completion before delivery. Philippe Pallafray is a member of the Sculptors Society of Canada. Born in France, he emigrated to Canada ten years ago and currently lives in Ile d’Orléans, Québec. He uses steel and stainless steel that he cuts, shapes, folds, and welds. Pallafray likes to use geometric and curved forms in his sculptures to tame and play with light. His sculptures have been exhibited in Canada and the United States, both as part of group and solo exhibitions. They are also part of public and private collections in Canada, France, and the United States. In 2016 he was artist-in-residence in Saint-Georges de Beauce, Québec, to create the sculpture Aquagraphie for Veilleux Park.

Bewitched - tall, modern, abstract, contemporary, aluminum outdoor sculpture
By Stephane Langlois
Located in Bloomfield, ON
Two organic shapes rise from the ground and reach for the sky in this finely crafted aluminum sculpture by Stephane Langlois. The abstract forms evoke the idea of two humans engaged in a dance, perhaps two birds, moving in response to one another. These sculptures are lively in the sunlight, moody in the evening light. They work well in sunny climates, and are also outstanding against the winter snow and light. Individual dimensions: pictured here, the left piece is 91 x 20 x 18 inches. The right piece is 91 x 19 x 21 inches. Stephane Langlois completed a bachelor's degree in psychology, in 2002, and a D.E.C in sculpture at the Maison des métiers d'art in Quebec City...
