Les fruits du temps, éd. 1/4

Chérif Thiam

Not on view

Les Fruits du Temps exemplifies Chérif Thiam’s signature style, characterized by vibrant colors, geometric patterns, and symbolic abstraction. The composition features exaggerated figures with wide-open mouths and bulging eyes, contributing to the playful and energetic nature of the work. Organized into small colored blocks separated by thick black borders, the piece recalls stained-glass windows and invites contemplation with its allegorical exploration of time. Consistent with Thiam’s joyful, decorative approach, this tapestry aligns with his broader vision of blending nature, culture, and spirituality.
