Metal sculptor
Steeped in science, Ulysse Lacoste explores balance, gravity, and movement. Mastering metal through traditional metalworking techniques and contemporary processes, he develops sculptures with a unique style.
The SOUFRIÈRES checkerboard takes shape using the deep-drawing technique, a process of deformation by stretching that exploits the malleability of the metal whilst preserving its structural integrity.Inspired by the geometric patterns of mashrabiya screens, the checkerboard pattern is punctuated by repetition and enlivened by chrome-plated steel balls, transforming the playing surface into a playful and sculptural space.
