Artwork description
Imbued with a captivating lyrical and narrative dimension, Vent soudain, by Patrick Coutu, features a dark, turbulent landscape of barren trees, mountains and clouds that intersect under the force of an imaginary wind. Composed of cast bronze elements that rest quietly on a white plinth, the piece evokes the relationship of time and process in the conception of both natural and human-made creations.
