Born in Montmartre, Aima Saint-Hunon is a gifted young Parisian artist, sculptor, painter, poet and performer working in many mediums, recently creating wearable sculptures. She has exhibited her sculptures and paintings in Paris, China, Taiwan, New Zealand and now New York City.
After studies of applied art in material sculpture, Aima becomes involved in the pursuit of forms and curves revealing a sensuality similar to her own inner being. The process reveals and amplifies her work with time, from 1 inch miniatures to 7 feet.
Very touched by the expression of femininity this artist leads us into a universe where women become Goddesses, where erotism flirts with purity. Her aesthetic eye follows the curves in nature and her vision captures the curves of the female figure in unique and captivating ways. It is beauty and passion that fills its space softly and lovingly without overwhelming it.
Her sculptures capture animal sensuality, emotion, arousal and her own life force. The metal is soft and sensual in its own right, cast, sculpted, polished and finished to her exacting standards. The result is a nude that draws gasps of pleasure, a modern artifact that mirrors the ancient passion in a new way, freshened by the insights of youth reinventing the medium for our own times.
Aima’s sculptures sweep space, time, beauty and passion together in the swirl of a heated instant. Run your fingers over the polished surfaces and feel the soft, burnished metal purr like a kitten. Her sculptures no longer have real forms but more of an abstract realistic search for an emotional force.
