Lode

Angervilliers, France •
Artist (Sculpture) •
Born 1975 •
"Bringing the material to life thanks to the emotions that emerge from it."

Laurence Desamber, alias Lode, is a contemporary French sculptor. She likes to connect with materials, with their constraints, with what they provoke as tactile sensations. The artist looks for the one that best corresponds to his state of mind: starting from a precise idea or keeping a certain freedom, leaving room for improvisation.

Emotion is at the heart of his works. Inspired by the feelings that run through her, she explores bodily expression with refined sculptures representing characters in unusual positions where balance and imbalance coexist.

Lode produces more engaged sculptures, echoing current events, revisiting symbolic figures.

In his portraits of women, the emotion is lighter. Lode seeks to challenge the viewer with gentleness, tenderness and humour.

Je suis extrêmement heureuse de faire partie des 20 finalistes du Trophée de la création 2021 de Boesner (sur plus de 1500 candidats).

J'ai  proposé "Gaïa" pour le thème de l'environnement. 

L'exposition des 20 finalistes aura lieu à Bordeaux (la date n'est pas encore fixée du fait des conditions sanitaires). Lors du vernissage, le jury choisira les 3 gagnants!
