Experiencing Built-Environments: Cyril Lancelin
Chiiz|Volume 30
Cyril Lancelin is a French artist, born in 1975 in Lyon. Combining technology and art, he envisions sculptures and images, bringing the viewer in his digital world, mixing fiction and reality. He questions the artificial landscape. Using parametric tools, he utilizes a vocabulary of classical shapes and volumetric spaces essential to create unique structures. In his vision, forms are used at the architectural scale to create experiential art. His work often engages the public in immersive installations, forcing the viewer to question their own relationship towards their built environment.

Tell us about your journey as an artist so far.

I posted some of the images I was doing after my work on Instagram. The images got some success; they were realistic images of imaginary art installation or imaginary houses.

Some clients wanted the installation in real, so as everything was drawn in 3D software, I contacted some manufacturers and we started to build them. I decided to quit my architecture job. I am very happy to have entered the art world. I like to work on the spatial experiment.

I can put this in practice in public art or in art galleries as there are fewer constraints here than in architecture. I work on images of the built or unbuilt project. At the end of each project, there will always be images left.

Dried and Dusted

The West Bengal state of India has always been known for its rich culture and diversity. This innate taste and style is reflected in their dishes too. Their cuisine is essentially. A lot of its flavours and masala mixes have been handed down from over a thousand years and Bengalis to this day retain those recipes which make them truly “shonar Bangla” dishes.
