An intermediate language with unfinished materialities: Marc Leschelier.

Marc Leschelier (FR) operates in the encounter between architecture and sculpture. His installations refute construction as a rational enterprise, but instead imagine it as a process simply made up of accumulations of matter: shapeless and brutal. This distinctive approach seeks to abandon the normalised formalism of the architectural discipline in favour of a more raw and intelligible reality of architecture.Leschelier reduces architecture to a skeletal state in order to unravel its components and to manifest the forces that pass through it. His radical experiment begins by uplifting architecture’s expectation for functionality: deploying an intermediate language and leaving materialities unfinished, he shapes his works as a form of pre-architecture.

“HUT” est un bâtiment archaïque contemporain qui traduit le modèle d’un abri improvisé avec les systèmes de construction nomades de notre époque. Sa structure secompose de matériaux industriels : un échafaudage et un textile enduit de ciment qui se solidifie au contact de l’eau et se transforme en béton. L’ensemble de ces techniques forme un édifice dont la forme a été sculptée sur place, les drapés produisant une plasticité inattendue, une architecture “jetée”.

Leschelier réintroduit la possibilité d’improvisation formelle à l’échelle de l’architecture, rejetant l’anticipation, la planification et le contrôle. Le résultat est un espace sans fonction, une pièce caverneuse, vide et ouverte à n’importe quel usage. Par sa simple existence, il perturbe la condition d’efficacité que l’architecture urbaine est généralement censée servir.

Marc Leschelier (France, 1984) opère à la rencontre de l’architecture et de la sculpture. Ses installations réfutent la construction en tant qu’entreprise rationnelle, mais l’imaginent plutôt comme un processus simplement constitué d’accumulations de matière: informel et brutal. Son travail a récemment été exposé à Sized pendant Frieze Art Fair 2022, The SkateRoom avec Michèle Lamy pendant Art Brussels 2022 et à Spazio Maiocchi.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
