“Sphinx”

Land art Installation

 

The Sphinx fell from its rock, from its pedestal when Œdipus, wishing to enter Thebes, solved the riddle expressed by the Sphinx.

 

Today there remains only the fixed shadow of the Sphinx reddened by the blood of his victims, printed in the ground and grass, at the foot of this tree full of sap, full of life. This tree will momentarily, once a day hide the shadow.

 

This scene appears as an unusual poetry when the shadow of the tree becomes a Sphinx – a shape not very consistent with the object or subject to which it is attached.
