It is a place of perfection in nature, of reconciliation with our origin, of serenity towards our near reality. Paradises are there, waiting for us. We earn them sometimes, and some other times we are expelled from them and then their very existence becomes a reproach. Paradises are not ephemeral, though. All that belongs to Nature is ephemeral and boundless at the same time. It remains until the infinite and returns to the beginning to wither again and so on, over and over. Paradise escapes us, it slips out in our imagination of what it is. It disappears and then, just like everything we cannot hold, like everything vanishing away from our desire for grasping, it must be replicated, frozen in time, imitated at best, never to be lost again. We contemplate it in all its confines, we study it and scrutinise all its forms, line by line, each with different colours and nuances. We thus hold on to the ephemeral, we stop its decadence, we perpetuate beauty in our urge to negate its own death. The paradise reverts to the logic of the quest. Maybe the last voyage ever to be undertaken is that of defining a paradise through sheer technical mastery, through the use of an apparent wisdom, a meticulous ability to reproduce reality: to create some sort of artificial paradise, a world where everything is reproducible and interminable, and so all appears at last to be perfectly docile and tame. To believe in the absolute harmlessness of such a paradise. And very likely to open up an abyss afresh, a new irony (tragic o comic or perhaps both at the same time) about each petal of each of its artificial flowers, made in the image and according to the likeness of reality. Artificial Paradises intends to be a very own and concrete paradise in a very specific location. The tradition of reproduction/imitation in Asia forms part of its culture. The tenacious aim for perfection, or for the idea of perfection held about things, blurs the confine between what is and its perfect imitation. In Asia the electric colours of the artificial plants...

The 19th century meerschaum carved painting is an elegant and exceptional piece depicting a scene with a female figure surrounded by putti. This work of art carved from sea foam is an impressive example of 19th-century decorative art in France. The attention to detail and delicacy with which this piece was carved is truly remarkable. The female figure and the putti are represented with a grace and precision which reflect the artistic talent of the sculptor. The texture of the sea foam adds an element of lightness and delicacy to the composition. The painting has total dimensions of 36x36 cm, with the central scene having a diameter of 12 cm. This proportion offers a harmonious visual balance which highlights the central scene without overwhelming the whole. This work of art evokes the aesthetic and artistic sensibility of 19th century France. The depiction of the female figure surrounded by putti adds a layer of symbolism and emotion to the piece, creating a captivating visual experience. In summary, this 19th century carved sea foam painting...
