INSPIRATION

Well known for his poetic sculptures and installations, Lescher is a Brazilian artist that conceives the structural conditions of each exhibition space. He puts special care in every creation, firstly investigating the mechanics of form and movement, balance and tension along with architectural spaces to produce stunning sculptures to defy the idea of dematerializing the architectural conditions. At the heart of his work he reflects direct  influences from Constructivism, the Brazilian Neo-Concrete movement, Performance Art and Minimalism. 

One of his most recognized pieces of art is Aerólitos, an installation of two Zeppelin-like balloons set side-by-side, one inside, the other outside of the pavilion’s windowed wall, creating a compelling double image that seemed to separate them for the the 19th Bienal de São Paulo in 1987. 

From a very particular lexicon, his works are developed through a language that arises from an interest in the behavior of the three-dimensional work, from stable solids to flexible solids and the intersection between solutions designed for the intuitive use of wood, mercury or copper, among other materials.
