Conciliabule poétique – A Childhood Scene Suspended Between Whispers and Imagination

With Conciliabule poétique, Bérénice Fourmy creates a work filled with softness, emotion, and expressive nuance. Five patinated terracotta figures sit closely together on a gently curved barrel stave, stretched out like a line of dreams. This sculpture—available for online purchase—perfectly embodies the artist’s signature style: simplified yet evocative figures, delicate gestures that speak without words, and compositions where the poetry of everyday life becomes a universal story.

The five characters form a silent chorus of emotions. Each one adopts a different gesture: one dreams, another observes, a third whispers, a fourth listens, a fifth reflects. Fourmy excels in capturing these micro-gestures that reveal inner life. Their pared-down faces, shaped with just a few subtle marks and openings, leave room for the viewer’s imagination. It is up to each observer to project their own stories onto these gentle silhouettes.

The barrel stave, weathered by time and naturally curved, brings a strong narrative dimension to the piece. It evokes a garden bench, a ship’s beam, or a fragment of an ancient arch crossing through time. Its dark, textured surface contrasts with the soft, pale tones of the terracotta, highlighting the finesse of the sculpted figures. The curvature of the wood introduces a dynamic movement, giving the impression that the characters are floating—suspended between two thoughts.

The tight arrangement of the figures creates warmth and human connection. Conciliabule poétique speaks of friendship, childhood, shared wonder, and the joy of being together. Every posture, every tilt of the head, every suggested glance contributes to a vivid, intimate narrative. The sculpture exudes complicity, tenderness, and quiet attentiveness.

The piece stands on a discreet metal base, allowing all attention to focus on the group. This simplicity reinforces the airy, intimate quality of the composition. In a contemporary interior, the sculpture becomes an immediate focal point—a calming presence that invites the viewer to smile, remember, or daydream.

For those looking to buy art online, Conciliabule poétique is a rare find. It brings together the delicate charm of patinated terracotta, the evocative strength of aged wood, and the poetic world of Bérénice Fourmy. Each detail reveals the care, sensitivity, and storytelling intention behind the artwork.
