Here she works directly a musician - a violinist.
The instrument is suggested in this very romantic work all in movement and lightness.
Isabel Miramontes gives each of her sculptures a soul of his own. Each figure carries within it a message delivered by a movement, a posture, an expression. To achieve this near perfection, Isabel Miramontes shapes the material, lightens it, softens it, bares it, works the curves until reaching this subtle and powerful balance.Literature
The title evokes with more sweetness the famous poem of Verlaine:
The long sobs
Violins
Of autumn
Rock my heart
Languidly
Monotone.
Les sanglots longs
Des violons
De l’automne
Blessent mon coeur
D’une langueur
Monotone.
