Lucy Glendinning Feather Child 6, 2012-2013 On the occasion of her first exhibition in France, Lucy Glendinning (b. 1964) lays out the space of the Da-end gallery with her fragil beings made of wax, feathers and silicone. Glendinning is a sculptor that works in the contemporary British tradition. She is interested mainly in the human body as a semiotic medium. Through it, art is the primary tool for investigating psychological and philosophical themes. « For me art inspires perspective and accountability through enhancing our perception of humanity, within our cultural historical context. To me this seems vital to the self awareness of society and in particular with growing contrasts. I want the observer to become conscious of themselves, as perceived in comparison to the object. This is why I am drawn to using the figure as a tool. To present a situation, that might create enough of a reaction and focus in a personal, to incite the viewer’s opinion. » Lucy Glendinning
