Le Pied, le Pull-over et le Système Digestif is a board book featuring photographs of the eponymous triptych of sculptures by artist duo Daniel Dewar and Grégory Gicquel, commissioned by Le Voyage à Nantes in 2021 and installed in Saint-Nazaire, France. The three monumental works—depicting a human foot, a knitted jumper, and a human digestive system—are cast in massive concrete blocks and rise nearly seven metres high, embedded among the sand and rocks of the shoreline.
The publication serves both as an object in its own right and as an intimate companion piece to the public works, capturing a moment in time for sculptures intended to evolve over decades, shaped by natural erosion and the unpredictable forces of the elements. Shot by the artists on 35mm film shortly after the installation, the images present both close-ups of the coarse, textured surfaces and wide contextual views of the sculptures within their coastal setting, on the edge of the harbour.
