Sabine Lalande‘s figures of children remind us of the challenge of the loss of vital power. Her freedom of expression doesn’t hesitate to combine ceramics and textiles.

They are composed in groups, and thus grouped, they are strong.

"It is difficult for us humans to die," said the old shaman, laughing. Oh indeed, it is difficult for us to die, but even so, you need not look any further. They are upright, these children of many colours, united and armed to fight. With their rounded cheeks, red lips and slanting or rounded eyes like marbles under their Mickey Mouse caps, their toys and their shoddy shields, they are defending childhood.

Above all, a literal childhood, scorned, far away under the bombs, but somehow also close, stripped bare by gadgets and an excess of images, and free, the spontaneous child in man, effervescent, the slightest trace of which is always a sign of life in an adult.

Given the state of the world, we could worry about the outcome of this combat.

And yet these children can do anything. Firmly planted in their multi-coloured boots, armed with their laughable toys, they can because they are together. .... "They come from different cultures, with the richness that this implies, but they have their human roots in common; an invitation to dialogue, to respect, to tolerate and to recognise oneself in the other. The world puts great pressure on people today, humans are driven into corners; paradoxically, this makes them stronger, provided they are linked to others and to the Earth."
