Description
Qu'en est-il? is a sculptural work in blown and flame-worked glass by artist Dominique Beaupré St-Pierre. At the crossroads of the organic and the ethereal, this piece intrigues with its base — solid, hollow, and pierced — enhanced with image transfers that catch the light like floating memories. From this structure rises a translucent glass stem, winding and jagged, resembling a wild branch caught mid-motion, almost alive.
- Dimensions: 5½ x 10 x 23 inches
- Technique: Blown glass, flame-worked glass, and image transfers
- One-of-a-kind artwork signed by Dominique Beaupré St-Pierre
- Delivered in a custom foam box for optimal protection
A captivating sculpture where the transparency of glass becomes the language of silence and mystery.
The artist
Dominique B. St-Pierre
Saint-Roch-Des-Aulnaies
I studied visual art at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, in Halifax. At that time, I was interested in photography, which I integrated into my sculptural ideas. It is when I discovered glass, a few years later, that I found my true matter of expression… the one that inspires, fascinates and challenges me!
My imagination is influenced by the process of glass transformation, but also by the strength, delicacy and renewal capabilities of nature. My current work consists of living sculptures in which plants become a medium of expression just like glass. Through these sculptures, I try to evoke the relation between people and the environment. I’m interested in the traces left by my interventions. My sculptures are also an invitation to look at what is hidden: because behind every process there is a story.
