About the Item

"Plumes" Sculpture Some may be reminded of a spear, while others will let their minds wander to the imaginary feather of a bird of paradise… The artist, too, has let his mind drift from one shore to the other. Free and slender, the feathers rise toward the sky, always adorned with the most delicate colors. Using overlay cane-blown glass, Xavier le Normand once again unveils a series of pieces where color tells the story of the infinite beauty of the sky. About the designer Xavier Le Normand, a glassblower for twenty-five years and winner of the Bettencourt Prize for manual dexterity, creates poetic works inspired by nature, the cosmos and the seabed. In 2021, he moved to the Dordogne region, where he set up a large studio and developed an artistic identity based on glassblowing and cold cutting. Xavier Lenormand draws inspiration from nature, which he considers a source of perfection and humility. His maritime memories of Saint Malo feed his intuition and imagination. His work, deeply connected to the cosmos, the seabed, and luminous phenomena, seeks to express the movement of life and the fragility of childhood. He sculpts, chisels, engraves, and prints glass, a material he believes capable of transforming the unreal into objects, inviting us through his sculptures to dream and marvel.
