Closer up, we see the \u0026lsquo;solitaries\u0026rsquo;: separate little balls of clay, each hung from a rope, bound together into a whole. Kneaded by hand, each ball has its own shape. The body is Michel Fran\u0026ccedil;ois\u0026rsquo; main source of inspiration from the world of forms, particularly in its most unexpected details. This gives genesis to concave and convex shapes, casts, prints, cross-sections and photographs. Of determinative importance here, is the print that the fingers leave behind. After selection and assemblage these details go on to lead full lives of their own. The very varied objects of Michel Fran\u0026ccedil;ois have this sort of \u0026lsquo;organic naturalness\u0026rsquo;, a natural connection with reality as their common attribute. The work hangs unmovingly, but at the same time there is a suggestion of motion. Michel Fran\u0026ccedil;ois is fascinated by elementary physics: the laws of energy, dynamism and movement. In his work he addresses those aspects that elude science\u0026rsquo;s objectivity, that find no room within the rational and schematic scientific approach. His sculptures possess a concentrated power, tension, restrained violence and lurking danger.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","description":"\u003cp\u003eVan op afstand oogt \u003cem\u003eSolitaires\u003c/em\u003e\u0026nbsp;massief en zwaar.

Elk bolletje heeft een eigen vorm, tot stand gebracht door het kneden van vingers. Bron van inspiratie voor de vormenwereld van Michel Fran\u0026ccedil;ois is het lichaam, maar dan wel in zijn meest onverwachte details. Hieruit ontstaan holle en bolle vormen, afgietsels, afdrukken, doorsneden en foto\u0026rsquo;s. Hier is de leegte die de afdruk van vingers achterliet, bepalend. Na selectie en assemblage gaan deze details een geheel eigen leven leiden. De zeer verscheiden objecten van Michel Fran\u0026ccedil;ois hebben dit soort \u0026lsquo;organische natuurlijkheid\u0026rsquo;, een natuurlijke band met de werkelijkheid, als gemeenschappelijk kenmerk. Het werk hangt onbeweeglijk maar bevat tegelijk een suggestie van beweging. Michel Fran\u0026ccedil;ois is gefascineerd door elementaire fysica: door de wetten van energie, dynamisme en beweging. In zijn werk wil hij die aspecten een plaats geven die ontsnappen aan de objectiviteit van de wetenschap, die geen plaats vinden binnen de rationele en schematische wetenschappelijke benadering.
