Madonna
« Madonna » is an original work by Gabriel Lemaire Sicre, born of an industrial machine recovered in Graulhet, the former world capital of leather: Gearbox, dismantled, cleaned, painted, and returned to a second life in which it no longer serves, it signifies. Gabriel Lemaire Sicre is represented by ARTDELION, an art agency in Paris. This work is not for sale. Gearboxes are everywhere at Le Paradis des Machines, and in their new life they express the same function as before, they were and they remain organs of transmission.
