Daniel Dewar & Grégory Gicquel - Le pied, le pull-over et le système digestif - Triangle Books 2025

Published on the occasion of Daniel Dewar & Grégory Gicquel sculptures installation in spring 2021 at Saint-Nazaire, France.
Between the crab claws, near the harbour master's office, on the beach lined with umbrella pines that plunges into the basin of Saint-Nazaire's outer harbour, the work consists of three sculptures representing respectively a foot, a pullover and a digestive system. Set in the sand and rocks, the gigantic figures, made of sculpted concrete blocks, will rise to a height of almost seven metres. Like fragments of bodies, architecture or port monuments, they draw up a landscape portrait of a modern civilisation subjected to erosion and the colonisation of the elements.
