Temps Suspendu

1999

A striking bronze sculpture by Sophia Vari, *Temps Suspendu* showcases the artist's masterful interplay of form and color through its rich black patina accented with vibrant red oil. The work embodies Vari's signature geometric sensibility, where fluid yet structured forms appear frozen in a moment of dynamic tension. The contrast between the deep, lustrous black surface and bold red elements creates a powerful visual dialogue that evokes both stillness and movement.
