"Being a fan of the Surrealist artistic movement, I always wondered what would Magritte or Dali do if they played video games or if they knew about Blender and Photoshop? What would happen if they were alive today? I’m sure they would have tons of fun. It’s in that frame of mind that I endeavored to see through the eyes of René Magritte.

This piece is paying tribute to the master by reinterpreting his painting « Les Marches de l’été » 1938-1939. I’m sure Magritte would have been bored to play Tetris the usual way but would have found much fun in one that would defy the laws of gravity. The sculpture here is a 3D scan of one of my physical pieces created in sandstone, that was sliced and then animated in a bouncing surreal manner."
