About the Item
This sculpture represents two donkeys of which only the skin remains, although they seem alive. As it is sometimes the case for Cécile Raynal’s sculpture, this work stages the emptiness as a possible structure. The subject is created on the empty space and not in opposition to it. This artwork is part of a narrative bestiary that has taken a growing place in the work of the artist in the recent years. "All sorts of animals and hybrid forms inhabit my work, chimeras, somewhere between animal and human figures." (Mémoires de Braise, by Cécile Raynal, Privat Publishing House, 2018).
Dimensions of the sculpture : 190 cm × 90 cm × 73 cm.
This sculpture is a one-off piece, delivered with a certificate of authenticity
The sculpture includes a plinth that is not the same as the image, but will be made to measure. Total height of the sculpture with the plinth: 190 cm. Height of the two donkeys: 90 cm.

Cécile Raynal
Whether human or animal, Cécile Raynal’s figures are a way to explore the world. The artist travels to remote, forgotten or marginal places immortalising in clay life stories that she brings back to her studio. Her work has been exhibited in prestigious museums such as the Musée des Arts et Métiers (Paris, 2018) and is the subject of ambitious public commissions such as the bronze sculpture of Winston Churchill in Cap-d’Ail (France). “The result of chance or sought-after encounters, my work starts with the sculpted portrait, a totemic record of each of these confrontations, and builds itself on the complicity, the exchanges and the correspondence resulting from them.”
