About the Item

She-Wolf is a unique smoke-fired sandstone sculpture by French contemporary artist Cécile Raynal, dimensions are 63 × 58 × 52 cm (24.8 × 22.8 × 20.5 in). This sculpture is unique and comes with an authenticity certificate. To the artist, the wolf is a captivating creature and one of the animals most akin to humans. Its dual role in fables — as both predator and prey — adds to its allure and symbolism. Cécile Raynal uses sculpture as a way of exploring the world, between documentary and fiction. Thus she often sets up her workshop in remote, forgotten or marginal places, that she goes over and then reconstructs in clay. A prison, a retirement home, a hospital, a convent, a cargo-ship… are among the places in which she invites the inhabitants to pose for her, so as to sculpt their portraits and capture these rare encounters.
