Jim Lambie — Blacktronic
Jim Lambie

Blacktronic

Blacktronic by Jim Lambie is a striking assemblage of everyday materials—jeans, duct tape, aluminium tape, a leather belt, and a high heel—mounted on wooden blocks and finished with acrylic paint. Lambie transforms these familiar, culturally loaded objects into a sculptural composition that blurs the boundary between fashion, music subculture, and fine art. The work reflects his ongoing interest in street culture and the aesthetic power of ordinary life, elevating mundane materials into something visually dynamic and charged with identity.
