SYLVIE FLEURY
Light rust and corrosion traces.
Fleury also introduces something very feminine through her work, in what is a male dominated art scene. Many of her pieces comprise typically male objects such as cars, motors or rockets, which Fleury clothes in a very feminine material or colour. Thus we find fur-clad or highly polished spaceships in the colours of the latest cosmetics collection, or golden high gloss motors and tyres.
The present piece - a spaceship, made of steel and zinc-plated steel sheeting, with its shimmering polished surface, is a wonderful example of Fleury’s play with traditionally masculine objects. Moreover, it provides an opportunity for reflection around cosmic delimitations, the universe and the tensions between art and spheres of belief - another important theme of her work.
