The Forest of Contemporary Art: Circle of umbels, work n°21

La Ronde des Ombelles responds to a request expressed by children of the village. Their wish to have access to games was supported and relayed by the municipality. The artist Yves Chaudouët, from the start, chose to carry the word of the children in the sense of a carrier of fire. The children and the project have grown together. It was necessary to reach this point where the first desire could metamorphose in the teenagers they were becoming, raise the words like embers, find a poetic form that combines steel and luminescent ceramics, the turnstile and the vegetable labyrinth, etc. . La Ronde des Ombelles has never strayed from the first dream. It is now a work of art in seven modules spread over a circle 140 meters in diameter.
