Cultural meditation
Creation of a new
sculpture at Hamilton House
Starting
August 15, artist Maude Palmaerts will begin a sculpture that will be
located in a new meditation garden at Hamilton House. This work of art, which
will be entitled "Les racines de
l’être", is intended to be an integrative sculpture whose main
objective is to create a comforting, protective space. It will be composed of a
rust-coloured Corten steel structure that will take on the appearance of a
tree, roots and branches intertwining. The characters will hold an umbrella
shining with its transparency and bright colours.
Cultural meditation – Take part in creating
this work of art!
On August
15 and 16, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m., you are invited to paint on a canvas and
write the names of loved ones you would like to honour. In this way, your works—sometimes
abstract and sometimes realistic—will be photographed and reproduced on the
final acrylic structures before being installed on the sculpture.
During the
artist's 18-day residency at Hamilton House, you are welcome to come and admire
the design of our future sculpture!
