From Man Ray to Marcel Duchamp, Gabrielle Shelton has a particular affinity for the tradition of artists making chess sets – now she can add her name to that list, too. Her sets are sprung from the desire to create something from the scrap metal found around her studio. The result is weighty pieces of bronze and aluminium perched atop an exquisitely sculptured board of marble.

Meet the Maker:
Gabrielle Shelton
Metal initially piqued Gabrielle Shelton’s interest during childhood, as she would spend time in her uncle’s metalwork shop before she decided to pursue it further at art school. While known for site-specific commissions, she has turned her eye to small-scale works such as bespoke chess sets crafted from scraps of carbon steel, copper and brass.
