FR : Avec Petit tiens bon !, créée en 2024, Sophie Verger réinterprète en petit format son bronze Tiens bon. Agrippé à l’arrière d’un éléphant qui avance d’un pas décidé, un enfant s’accroche de toutes ses forces, comme pour ne pas se laisser distancer, dans une image touchante de confiance et de complicité.

Pour l’artiste, changer d’échelle, c’est réinterpréter l’œuvre. Cette petite sculpture en bronze (15 x 26 x 10 cm) à la patine claire et texturée se pose sur une étagère, un bureau ou une table de chevet.


EN : With Petit tiens bon ! (Little Hold On!), created in 2024, Sophie Verger reinterprets her bronze Tiens bon in a small format. Clinging to the back of an elephant striding forward, a child holds on with all his might, as if determined not to be left behind, in a touching image of trust and closeness.

For the artist, changing scale means reinterpreting the work. This small bronze sculpture (15 x 26 x 10 cm) with its light, textured patina sits on a shelf, a desk or a bedside table.
