Inspired by the Scottish rams (tups) when I lived in the rolling countryside near Dumfries in Scotland. He has a cheeky glint in his eye even though his stance is seemingly aggressive , there is a sense of uncertainty and ridiculousness that brings a smile to everyone’s face when they see him.

Born in Paris in 1960, now living in Bristol, England, Lucianne Lassalle has always made sculpture. She grew up in a bohemian, artistic environment, her mother was a potter, her father a painter and her Aunt was the muse Sylvette David for Picasso in 1953. The human form has always been Lassalle’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 big impact on her recent work, streaming a flow of urban realities, reflecting particularly on the street culture in the city today and creating awareness of the vulnerabilities and vibrancy of the human city zoo. Urban myths are grafted to the archetypes of ancient Abrahamic and Greco/Roman mythologies, bridging the gap between hip hop and Michelangelo. One can see Lassalle’s obsession with the story of Icarus who dances, flies and falls through space, linked to the restless rebelliousness of youth, a desire to experience an exciting and razor edge life. This subject has also allowed her to express a wide range of dynamic movement,bringing her love of contemporary dance and physical theatre into her work. "Some of the work subtly ‘has a go’ at male machismo while simultaneously paying tribute to the whole classical culture that was largely their (male) invention" Howard Male "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. 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" Jeff Pirie "I find myself turning Icarus by a few degrees a couple of times a day so I see him from a new perspective. He is interesting/beautiful from any angle. This quality is very unusual. Most figures need to be seen from one or two sides. I have now repositioned him to the centre of the round glass table in the middle if my living room. " Patrick Alan Lassalle works from the life model, as well as from photos and memory. Creating pieces on all scales from 15cm to 2 meters, she works in initially in clay the sculpture is then cast into limited edition Bronzes or resins. “I see the human form as the interface between the mental, emotional and spiritual processes inside and the external manifestation of these in the world.
