The coloured bronze statue of a Spanish girl stands in Parc de Bercy.

Marie Carmen wears a ruffled red, yellow and blue Flamenco dress, and a short lattice veil over her dark hair.

Marie Carmen the Spanish girl is one of 21 statues created by Rachid Khimoune under the concept of Les Enfants du Monde (Children of the World).

The statues have been installed in Parc de Bercy in 2001. The statues are made from re-used industrial metal items with different textures welded together.
