A three-legged cyclops on the lookout – but is that a cat’s eye or a female genital organ? This somewhat grotesque and disquieting critter is a good example of the offbeat and poetic work of sculptress Marjolaine Dégremont, who draws on her rich personal store of out-of-the-ordinary life experiences.
