This is the first book to explore the oeuvre of contemporary Belgian sculpor Carole Solvay (b. 1954). Using primarily feathers and thin wire, Solvay has, over the past 25 years, created ethereally beautiful sculptures that seem to defy gravity. This publication illustrates over 100 of her works alongside short quotations from Solvay's favorite literary works, including by Carson McCullers, Syvia Plath, Mahmoud Darwish, Fernando Pessoa, and Yi Jing, among many more. These writers have inspired Solvay's work, and in pairing particular quotations with her sculptures, this book provides a unique window into her art and practice.
