Comments

This mini-medal is inspired by a work by Marcel Broodthaers Le Langage des Fleurs, 1965, the specificity of which is to be, for the first time for this type of production, worked on both the obverse and the reverse. This mini-medal represents the artist's concerns related to writing and painting, the letters on the palette becoming the material of the words.
