Michel Lamoller – Walls Apart

CURRENT WORKS
Michel Lamoller, born in the Black Forest region of Germany, creates art that bridges the gap between photography, sculpture, and installation. Although his work is based on photography, it embodies sculptural volume. Residing within a unique dimension where various forms of art are merged, generating something new in their synthesis, the artist creates work that crosses boundaries and defies classification into genres. This freedom enables his work to develop its enor- mous presence.
Several different layers of a photographic subject are placed on top of one another and then carved with a scalpel. In this manner, the artist constructs reliefs and three-dimensional spaces are generated within the images. His works deal with questions concerning these three-dimensional spaces, but they also deal with issues of perception and the reality of images.
