Statement

Lucianne works directly with a variety of clays but mostly stoneware. Her work is then either fired or cast into bronze, resin or cement. Her finishes include stains, oxides and encaustics. She will often bring stone, metal or wood into her work fascinated by the juxtaposition of the diverse qualities of different materials.

What has engaged Lucianne mostly in her work is the human form and the energy therein. On seeing her sculpture one is struck by the beauty and powerful expressiveness of the form and its inherent flexibility as a vehicle to inspire.

“ In the tension, movement and sheer life in the craft of Lucianne Lassalle there is a feeling of anticipation that asks a question of you every time you see it.”
Jeff Pirie, Collector

As she says “I see the human form as the interface between the mental, emotional and the spiritual and the manifestation of these in the world. My mission is to celebrate humanity in all its complex and unique beauty”
