The cultural association "The roads of the country's culture Uzerche" organizes this 7 th meeting, sponsored by the city councils of 8 populations belonging to the region of Uzerche.

This year, the activity takes place on the rugby field of Salon la Tour, a small rural town where it is said that there are more cows than people. The treatment of people with deeply sculptors is nearby, where some come every day to visit and collaborate when preparing dinner. It's amazing the interest in these people to culture in general and sculpture in particular, no doubt developed during the past symposia.

The theme this year is agriculture, and present projects to carry limestone, wood and metal.

Work Period: from 18 to 30 July 2010.

My project made "germinated seed" is part of a series where I look for that moment where a seed plant, which may have been even hundreds of years in dormancy, find the right conditions of humidity and temperature to start the process germination, stem breaking out this new protective shell and goes looking for the air, searching for light.

Carved from a block of limestone 200 x 100 x 50 cm.

8 international sculptors selected:

BILLON Jacques, Fanny Chabaud, Raphaëlle DUVAL, MANI, Pascal NOEL, Pierre VEXLARD as French artists, Piotr Twardowski, Poland, and Pedro JORDAN representing Spain.
