Challenge 843: The sculptor
While in the village of Port d'Envaux in France last year, I paid my annual visit to the nearby Les Lapidiales, where each year a variety of international sculptors are invited to add to the collection.

This woman is just at the beginning of her creation. Can you help her to finish the job?

High res is here.

Aggressive feminist? Recently jilted? Or simply plain old clumsy?

The choice is yours ............

Porte D'Envaux is in the Cognac region. Do we think she is maybe trying to curry favour with some of the judges?



Truth is I haven't pulled this one off. But the more I fiddle the more lost I get. So posting now.

I think it was an accident - a slip of the chisel

Anna. Looking at photos of the real site this looks like just the kind of crazy thing they would do.
