For Lalanne everything has a function. In these works her mastery of electroplating sits centre stage. Through this method she transformed organic material into copper by running it through a bath of copper sulphate. Working intuitively, she then joined each piece together and heated them to obtain her signature pinkish hue, a method she utilised all the way up until her death in 2019.
