Lucianne Lassalle
Sculptor
Born in Paris 1960 and now living in Bristol, England. Lucianne Lassalle has created sculpture since she was a child. She grew up in a bohemian artistic environment, her mother was a potter, her father a painter.
Lucianne Lassalle has exhibited globally at various Art Fairs, galleries and privately. She is represented by several galleries including The Bowie Gallery, Gallery Different and The Hidden Gallery. Lucianne is known for creating ‘the angel’ given to the bereaved families who have lost a loved one to covid whilst working in the NHS.
The human form has always been Lucianne’s passion. It holds endless possibilities albeit just as pure sculptural form or as a socio-political reflection or comment.
Living in Bristol has had a huge impact on Lucianne’s recent work, streaming a flow of urban realities, reflecting particularly the street culture in the city today. Leading her investigation into the vulnerabilities and vibrancy of human nature, here urban myths are grafted on to the archetypes of ancient Abrahamic and Greco/Roman mythologies.
Lucianne works predominantly from the life model . Creating pieces on all scales; from 15cm to 2 meters. She works initially in clay, the sculpture is then cast into limited editions of Bronze or various resins.
“I see the human form as an interface between the mental, emotional and spiritual processes inside and the external manifestation of these ‘states’ in the outside world. I am fascinated by the complexity of the human experience. This is what compels and inspires me to make sculpture” Lucianne Lassalle.
Making pieces on all scales from 15cm to 2 meters. Lucianne works directly with a variety of clays but mostly stoneware. She creates her sculptures using clay slabs and modeling the clay as she builds up the hollow form, the finished pieces are then fired in a kiln and mounted. She often uses local stone as bases for her work. Her Limited editions are both in resin and bronze which she patinates herself.
