Le Soldat (The Soldier)

Twenty years after Femme qui marche ((Walking Woman), Couturier continued his exploration of salvaged materials as a source of form.

A precarious and playful quality emerges in this figure, built from a piece of gutter pipe with arms fastened by screws.

In 1975, La Fiancée du Soldat (The Soldier’s Fiancée) was created as a companion piece.
