Description

Work in tribute to Mister Paul – O Trépanier

The work is sculptural as it is architectural; it is a hymn to what made up Mister Trépanier’s personality, the public person, the socially committed man, the man of vision, impassioned by the arts.

The human that, while searching for balance in his life, makes choices at the crossroads; unique path or parallel roads?
