Ferama
 

Ferama's artistic direction experienced a decisive turn while she was in West-Africa where she learned the lost wax method, a bronze founding technique. Working in her own studio later in Bamako, Mali gave an African and earthy influence to her work which is seen in her current sculptures. An additional influence has been her close relationship to India and its spirituality.


In her art Ferama brings her knowledge of the liveliness and beauty of the earth in form combined with the light of the sun to give her sculptures oneness with the earth. In this sense Ferama is giving a body to light which spreads on the observer with a corresponding openness.
The sculptures talk about the simplicity of mankind arising from the essence of being. With their attributes of strength, beauty, peace, freedom, sensuality and devotion the longings of much of the world are shown. Through engaging Ferama's art one can connect again with one's real origins.
By viewing and touching the sculptures the memory of one's own lively being arises. They stir in the observer old knowledge which can then combine with new time.

The artist lives in Paris.
