Éloge de la transgression, Contemporary statue in Place du Bouffay, Nantes, France.
The bronze sculpture depicts a young girl climbing down from a pedestal, challenging traditional concepts of static monument displays in public spaces.
Philippe Ramette created this statue in 2018 as part of Le Voyage à Nantes program, which integrates artistic works throughout the city's landscape.
The statue represents a physical manifestation of breaking free from conventional limitations, reflecting modern perspectives on institutional structures and authority.
Located in the center of Nantes, the statue remains accessible daily from 8:45 AM to 7:30 PM during peak season between March and October.
The sculpture features precise engineering details, including specific holes in the figure's feet that align with the pedestal's mounting points.
