M. Le Blanc 2010
M. Le Blanc locks a polished steel grid within a crystal clear glass clamped between two piers of white Oamaru stone blocks. Fragility is pitted against the tough, the raw and the rare. Grid on grid, the work slides in degrees of opacity and transparency; glistening, swelling and receding with changing light.
Titled after the masculine nom de plume used by French mathematician Sophie Germain to obtain knowledge and compete with her male peers, M. Le Blanc extracts and rebuilds the bones of her enterprise.
