Sylva Hanuise

Belgium / Switzerland

The artist Sylva Hanuise creates granite sculptures, as well as Indian ink works and drawings.

"Neither entirely figurative nor precisely expressionist, his art is stripped of the scars of complacent siblinghood and responds to the greatest subjectivity: that of the heart. He belongs to the minimalist school, which seeks to create essential forms to reveal a certain idea of pure, almost sacred beauty. Inspired by nature, his stone 'silhouettes' tend towards abstraction while retaining a sense of fluidity, sensuality and familiarity." (Pierre Dragomirov)
