Like Han Solo in Carbonite, this amazing screaming face is caught in a skateboard. This work was made by the artist-sculptor Gaël Flin, aka Liou Kouma. He is passionate about the art of destructuring or restructuring from other materials: boards. For this scupture entitled ‘Le cri de ma board’, he used 12 boards and spent dozens of hours. His process was to create a mold to measure the amount and distribution of wood plies before tackling and cutting.
If you are in France, his exhibition ‘Boards, Hijacking and Skateboarding’ will take place from April 11th to May 11th at Le Phare in Limoges. And to follow his work, @lioukouma on Instagram.
