L'insurrection des ânes, sculptures by Loïc Bodin

In 1996, Scottish scientists gave birth to Dolly, a clone, a perfect replica of her mother.
Torn between fascination and confusion, Loïc Bodin extends the experience in the artistic field, reinterpreting humanity's taste for monsters and chimeras.
Going from Egyptian deities to medieval crypts, he freezes the clinical cold of the labs in the sensuality of white marble. Her recumbent figures are sleeping beauties ready to wake up to the kiss of a hypothetical prince of genetics.

Between the gravity of Francis Bacon and the lightness of Barry Flanagan, the work of Loïc Bodin plays on a timeless string a contemporary score of the struggle between flesh and soul.
