This compelling minimalist sculpture by Quebec’s Philippe Pallafray is hand forged in stainless steel. The clean lines of the pillar become more interesting when jagged edges and a fissure in the rust-brown patina reveals polished steel. Pallafray’s work is designed to represent the duality of nature and the industrial world. This is number one in an edition of ten.“My geometrically shaped sculptures, whose angles and planes resemble Japanese origami, oppose the strength of metal with the fragility of paper. “ Philippe Pallafray
He is a member of the Sculptors Society of Canada. Born in France, he emigrated to Canada ten years ago and currently lives in Ile d’Orléans, Québec.
