“Carving the Invisible: Auguste Rodin and Camille Claudel”

"Auguste Rodin reshaped the history of sculpture by rejecting perfection in favor of truth. Born in Paris and dismissed by the art establishment, Rodin learned from the human body itself—its tension, vulnerability, and emotion. This short film explores his most powerful works, from The Thinker, a symbol of thought and inner struggle, to The Kiss, a moment of suspended passion. Central to this story is Camille Claudel, Rodin’s student, collaborator, and lover, whose influence shaped The Gates of Hell and some of his most emotionally charged figures. Together, their art reveals how modern sculpture was born from love, conflict, and raw humanity." from the video introduction
