Artworks by Guy Leclef

Strips of paper deployed like paint, thick accreations, thin layers, sliced, impregnated, cut and pasted: this is the raw material that forms the basis of Guy Leclef’s artworks. His oeuvre represents a perpetual quest for the essence of things. Varied and exhilarating art, moulded from a mountain of waste paper. Through his signature attention to detail, he transforms his paper art into an experience. Guy Leclef’s handling of his medium – as though it were paint – displays a playful virtuosity, and never descends into showmanship or ennui. Call it poetic recycling.
