FR : Front contre croupe, un éléphanteau pousse de toutes ses forces un éléphant adulte qui avance d'un pas tranquille. Avec Opposition 2, Sophie Verger saisit avec humour ce bras de fer entre la volonté du petit et la masse imperturbable de l'aîné, dans un modelé vibrant qui rend la texture de la peau.

Bronze à patine grise, 27 x 52 x 18 cm (10 5/8 x 20 1/2 x 7 1/8 in), 2018. Édition limitée à 8 exemplaires + 4 épreuves d'artiste. Une sculpture animalière pleine de tendresse et de mouvement.


EN : Head against rump, a baby elephant pushes with all its might against an adult elephant walking calmly ahead. With Opposition 2, Sophie Verger captures with humour this tug of wills between the youngster's determination and the unshakeable bulk of its elder, with vibrant modelling that renders the texture of the skin.

Grey patina bronze, 27 x 52 x 18 cm (10 5/8 x 20 1/2 x 7 1/8 in), 2018. Limited edition of 8 + 4 artist's proofs. An animal sculpture full of tenderness and movement.
