Dancing Miss Eiffel
Alexandre Leffie
From Paris to Los Angeles in one dance step
With his sculpture "Dancing Miss Eiffel", French artist Alexandre Leffie has created a tribute to the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris. Inspired by the Walk of Fame in Los Angeles, he has the sculpture balancing on a star-shaped pedestal like a ballet dancer.
For Leffie, Miss Eiffel symbolizes an ode to femininity, capturing beauty, grace and elegance. Simultaneously, she reflects the fragility of our social environment by unbalancing the structure, which weighs several tons.
Brilliant views from the balcony
The realization of the filigree stainless steel body was a demanding challenge. The recesses in the fine framework are free of weld seams or traces of machining, while the mirror-polished metal lends the figure a remarkable delicacy. The gold-plated crown and balconies add an extra touch of elegance.
