About the Item

n The Tempest, the late Belgian sculptor Isabelle Thiltgès distills chaos into elegance, sculpting a storm that feels both timeless and eerily still. Cast in bronze, the work unfurls like a Baroque painting in three dimensions—its billowing, wind-lashed forms recall the emotional force of a Turner seascape or the theatrical folds of Bernini’s drapery. At one edge, a solitary robed figure emerges from the sculptural surge, evoking both vulnerability and resolve. The interplay between organic movement and the human presence is central to Thiltgès’ visual language: like Giacometti’s figures caught in existential suspension, this lone silhouette holds its ground within the tempest. With its dramatic energy and lyrical abstraction, The Tempest stands as a powerful meditation on inner strength, making it a statement piece for collectors of symbolic and emotionally resonant sculpture. Cast on demand, from a limited edition. *This is sculpture number 4 of an edition of 8
