About the work :

Mon dessous d'armure ( My under armour ) is an artwork by contemporary French artist Cécile Raynal, from the « Petites histoires en réserve » (tales from the storage area) series.

This figurative sandstone sculpture with partial white pigments is of a man seated on a small wooden crate. The small crate is in turn placed on a larger one in a tiny corner of which there is a yellow sports car. 

« I turn back to the sculpture, a stocky young man, sitting there in his shell of clay, traces of a fencer's under armour which was for a long time, from the time, here we go again, from his childhood. »

This sculpture exhibited in the Arts et Métiers museum between 29 May and 26 Aug 2018, part of the "petites histoires en réserve" series was created during Cécile Raynal's residency behind the scenes at the museum in 2017. As per her method, the artist created busts and standing figurines of the people she met as well as animal sculptures (wolves and foxes) recurrent in the works of the artist for a few years now.
