« Cecile Devezeaux de Lavergne transposes her sensations and emotions in her sculptures. She expresses in the wood her inner Vital Sensations. Her artistic process is a spiritual journey translated in a formal language, response of an intense vitality. Cecile reveals the unconscious, the human, the sense of the story of the immediate event in a vital and universal expression of life. »
