Praised be the Rain

Praised be the Rain – Sculpture – Artist Addé

 

Praised be the rain

In Western Africa, the rain is expected as a necessity and a blessing. The early signs of the forecoming blessing are eagerly watched out. Then it comes… rain is not only the (so much needed) water, it is sounds, smells, chants, laughters, feasts and rejoicements, celebrating life and fertility. Based on a Kuba inspired pattern, this sculpture is the expression of the spirit of Rain.

En Afrique de l’Ouest, la pluie est attendue comme une nécessité et une bénédiction.
Les premiers signes de la bénédiction à venir sont très attendus.
Puis elle arrive… la pluie n’est pas seulement l’eau (si nécessaire), ce sont des sons, des odeurs, des chants, des rires, des fêtes et des réjouissances, qui célèbrent la vie et la fertilité.
Basée sur un modèle inspiré de Kuba, cette sculpture est l’expression de l’esprit de la pluie.

      Merci mille fois! Je suis touché parce que j’ai une affection particulière pour cette pièce. Qu’il s’agisse de poésie ou de sculpture, parfois une œuvre coule de source. Phénomène particulier, comme si un au-delà improbable insufflait une énergie silencieuse mais directrice.
