Produced in collaboration with Patrick Vindimian, this work by Mimosa Echard is inspired by her research into the tensegrity structures discovered by Karl Ioganson. This seemingly inert sculpture is nevertheless based on mechanical forces. Three elements (brass, steel and galvanised steel) taken from the Foundation's building at 9 rue du Plâtre are put in tension to form a figure in a continuum of energy. The work appropriates the qualities of traditional sculpture defined by mass, as well as those of the mobile.
