The powerful physicality of this dramatic table is balanced by the tiles that cover the entire surface. Embossed in French in a playful font is a list of elements found in nature: light, bird, cloud, rose, morning, shore…  Quentin was a multi-disciplinary artist where text was often a central element. Quentin's work is in the same spirit and generation as Line Vautrin.
