Merelle has brought an unimaginable scene—a guy carrying a gigantic elephant—to reality with her statue! This is intriguing because, in addition to his masterful use of the hyperrealist technique, the artist conveys a message that, in my opinion, blurs the boundaries between what is feasible and what is not, and he masterfully combines fiction and reality!The term “pentateuch,” which means “teaching,” refers to the five books of the Torah. Merelle utilized this title, in my opinion, to teach us that if we believe in ourselves, we can achieve anything.
