Description
“Sébastien Kito is an artist of withdrawal. Of line too, because the refined sculpture tends to become a simple vertical or curved line. Rather curved, because the world he draws is cosmic. The earth is round, space is curved, the tree is ellipse.”
Claude Mollard
Mobile, articulated and hollowed-out sculptures, often bearing anthropomorphic or animal reminiscences, the works of Sébastien Kito have a particular relationship to space that is close to the Japanese concept of «ma», referring to the subjective variations of the vacuum connecting two separate elements. The artist materializes, from traces and simple lines, cut-out forms that articulate themselves in games of colors and transparencies to produce new refined volumes. He thus suggests complex relationships or interactions between sculptures and space, between full and empty.
The artwork Merle created for the Art For All Prestige collection perfectly reflects this reflection. A true symbol of knowledge and intuition, but also a bearer of renewal, this noble bird invites itself today in a new dialogue between the artist and the collector.
