Price per snail.

Sculpture of a snail, by Claude Gilli, French painter and sculptor from the School of Nice.

It is when seeing a crate of salad overturned in a market in Nice, and snails escaping from it, that Gilli visualizes the creative potential of the animal and the footprints it leaves in its wake. It becomes a privileged tool of the artist's work.

Sculpture in polychrome painted molded resin.

Signed Gilli on the shell.
