Inspiration: In 3… 2… 1 Go, Yves Pagart merges two emblematic figures of the universal bestiary: the hare and the tortoise. The hybrid born of this encounter defies classic oppositions — speed and slowness, momentum and patience, lightness and heaviness. The sculpture, heterogeneous and deliberately ambiguous, freezes the moment before the race: this suspended in-between where intention precedes movement. The title, evocative of an imminent departure, creates an ironic tension in the face of this composite body, unsuited to any finish line but rich in symbols. Between a diverted fable and a reflection on duality, 3… 2… 1 Partir questions the meaning of competition, progress and time itself, confronting the observer with the complexity of a departure that may never have happened.
