THE HOMOISEAU, Stone

About This Project

The Homoiseau is the metamorphosis of man to bird. Artist Caroline Grassiot wondered about the practice of extreme aerial sports. What does a human being look for when he throws himself into a vacuum? Confront gravity? Surpass oneself? Facing the wind, this unknown element? Forget about his heavy legs for a moment? Feeling light, free? Paradoxically, because it no longer has solid support, the power to fly is a great force that requires balance, perfect control of its movements, and concentration.
