Théo Mercier is a French sculptor. Born in Paris in 1984, he currently lives and works between Paris and Marseille. Claiming formal freedom, Théo Mercier works to deconstruct the mechanisms of history, objects, and representations, in which he brings up harmonious contradictions. An Endless Summer is a set of four new works, representing bronze melted chairs supporting stone balls, indicating that a heatwave threat emanates from the sky without this playful furniture having had time to hide from the sun. In this tragicomic installation that plays with paradoxes, what was soft becomes hard, what was cheap becomes precious, and what was disposable becomes millennial.
