Le Mans is a striking ceramic body sculpture inspired by the legendary endurance race and the iconic 1971 film Le Mansstarring Steve McQueen. The piece features the unmistakable Gulf Racing colours, vivid powder blue and bold orange, immortalised in the racing suit of McQueen’s character, Michael Delaney. Sculpted with dynamic form and a sense of motion, the work pays homage to the raw speed, tension, and elegance of 1970s motorsport.
Both a cinematic and automotive tribute, this sculpture fuses nostalgia with contemporary ceramic artistry, making it a compelling statement for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
