Martin Laforêt’s work is in line with the aesthetics of Arte Povera, conferring nobility onto industrial building materials through hand-crafted processes. Also inspired by architectural styles like Brutalism, his functional sculptures are conceived in original arrangements of raw materials. In V1LC20YELLOW, the artist plays with the ambiguity of components that seem to have been found on a construction site. From their cold and unrefined surfaces, Laforêt elicits a warm and sensitive atmosphere through an inviting colour scheme and a playful use of form.
