Marine de Soos
The Waiting Time by Marine de Soos - Bronze sculpture, standing figure, man

2015-2020

About the Item

The Waiting Time is a bronze sculpture by French contemporary artist Marine de Soos, dimensions are 72 × 26 × 21.5 cm (28.3 × 10.2 × 8.5 in). The sculpture is signed and numbered, it is part of a limited edition of 8 editions + 4 artist’s proofs, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. The "Figure" series includes this bronze sculpture. In this piece of figurative art, a young man is shown standing still and waiting while only wearing a loincloth. He may have raised his right hand to shield himself from the sun or to get a better look at the horizon. Real or imagined scenes serve as the artist's source of inspiration. It would be possible to set this bronze sculpture outside. Marine de Soos creates poetic sculptures in bronze, flooded with emotion. She relates true stories and conveys moments of pure joy, rehashed from souvenirs gathered from here and there : the position of a hand, a foot, the tilt of a head… Whatever the starting image an emotion is unequivocally connected : ” I can only work when I am feeling emotional” says the artist who admits not having “a vision of what [she is] going to create.” Her only guide… the emotion and, ultimately, an invitation to take a rare poetic journey which thrusts the viewer into a contemplative state.
