Harumi Klossowska de Rola: Yakushima, the Mystic Island

Along her trajectory as a sculptor, Harumi has never ceased to recognize this deep emotion that she combines admirably with a fascination for flora and fauna cultivated from a young age.

Thus, the discovery of her bestiary is a magical moment teeming with profound emotion. 

These sculptures, beyond the limits of time, seem to us strangely familiar, like so many of the treasures arising from our collective subconscious, conferring a character of absolute universality to these mystical animals.

Their apparent immobility is only an illusion: at any moment, Ame-no-Kaku, the monumental stag, appears to take up his sovereign march once more through the ancient forest.
