Vincent Dubourg presents his new exhibition, Blue Weather, showcasing a body of work anchored by the passage from molten force to settled calm. Opening at Carpenters Workshop Gallery in London, the exhibition features sculptural artworks crafted in bronze and wood that reflect Dubourg's ongoing exploration of matter as language, power as form, and transformation as a site of meaning.
Drawing from Constructivism and Brutalism, Dubourg designs objects at the crossroads of architecture, symbolism and everyday life, treating collectible design as a narrative medium. The Paris-born artist’s work emerges from his observation of societies and their invisible architectures – such as power, belief and hierarchy, as well as the upheavals that reshape them. Questioning the system of modernity that seeks to organise the world through reason, Dubourg’s pieces stage remaking and redistribution while proposing alternative ways of inhabiting space. In Dubourg's new works, bronze is imagined as a material caught between violence and repose.
