Open Studio: Lancelot Michel

Come and meet artist-in-residence Lancelot Michel during our Open Studio event. Michel will present to the public the fruits of his research developed during his summer residency at Fonderie Darling, notably during moments spent in the sometimes stifling heat of the ceramic studio. 


In French, with translation available upon request. Snacks and refreshments will be available in the 3rd floor lounge.


ACCESSIBILITY

Please note that access to the event is through the stairs of the 250 Queen Street entrance.


LANCELOT MICHEL
 

It is initially with Photoshop that Lancelot Michel puts his feet into creation. This is followed by a work of sculpture and molding often inspired by low reliefs. In this way, oscillating from one technique to another, from digital to material, he reveals a world marked by the collapse of its borders. A bewitching homogenization told in the first person. It doesn't matter how many days have passed or whose flesh it is; we move forward each day between our comforter and the mist, in the light of a cell phone, with the irrepressible desire to recompose.

Lancelot Michel lives and works between Montpellier and Brussels. He graduated from the School of Fine Arts of Montpellier (ESBAMOCO) in 2019. He recently co-directed Muselé-e and Muselé-e 2, alongside Ugo Masciave and Baptiste Eybert, two self-financed pop-up exhibitions that brought together visual and sound artists for a few fiery nights and days. He now has his studio in Brussels but continues to operate tenacious links between the two cities.
