In we encounter a piece where visual play, irony and material poetry converge to bring to life an unforgettable feline character. This mixed media work, created on paper with dimensions of 66x100 cm, is more than just a cat portrait. It is an homage to the animal as a symbol of mystery, elegance and independence. Dominated by orange, black, green and red tones, the composition unfolds in broad chromatic planes enriched by collage, stencils and layered textures. The cat appears as the central figure, with large eyes that draw the viewer into a whimsical and theatrical world. The scene suggests a secret celebration, a party where the mundane becomes magical. gains full meaning when understood through Yeyati's ethics, where turning discarded objects into value is both a poetic and political act. The work merges graphic and pictorial languages in perfect balance, evoking imaginary worlds with a nostalgic tone and ironic charm.
A visual universe that reclaims the discarded
Zeta Yeyati is an Argentine visual artist who has turned recycling into a form of beauty and reflection. While many know him through music, his artistic origin lies in drawing and visual experimentation from a young age. His art arises from the desire to transform forgotten objects into poetic images where color, material and memory intertwine. Working from the margins, he rescues fragments of the overlooked and reimagines them into emotionally charged visual narratives.
Fiesta gatuna obra de Zeta Yeyati as a testimony of creative freedom
In his intuitive and rule-free artistic identity becomes clear. Yeyati constructs his works from discovery, assembling elements found in flea markets or the street into refined and expressive compositions. Here, stencils and collage blend with subtle assemblages and surface effects to form a rich and textured image. The cat, drawn with minimal lines and striking eyes, stands as an emblem of the artist's poetic world. It is a stylized figure that captures the ironic and imaginative heart of his work.
A celebration of what we overlook transformed into visual poetry
Yeyati's art is an act of redemption that calls us to see beauty in the invisible. In he elevates the feline figure into a protagonist of color, texture and emotion. The result is a painting that stays with the viewer like a strange and charming memory. The party is not just for the cat, but for the eye and the mind. Within this hybrid and enchanting universe, stands as a central piece that confirms his commitment to creativity, sensitivity and artistic reuse.

Presentation
Zeta Yeyati (Burzaco, 1965) is a visual artist who has transformed recycling into a poetic language and forgotten matter into an act of aesthetic redemption. While the public has come to know him as a musician in projects like Los Intocables, La Mississippi, or Babel Orkesta, his true creative roots lie in the visual arts. Visual expression was his first terrain. Before the chords came drawing. Before the stages came interlocked tree trunks.
A restless and sensitive autodidact, Yeyati attended workshops with figures such as Antonio Pujía, León Ferrari, and Diana Aisemberg, yet his work doesn't follow any formal school. He moves freely between ceramics, collage, stencil, and assemblage. His aesthetic is nourished by what others discard: street posters, scraps of iron, furniture legs, bronzes, and aged wood. A dumpster was his first museum. Then came flea markets, where he continues to collect remnants for his unique pieces.
In his works, dogs, birds, musicians, queens, horses, and magicians coexist, as if each figure emerged from a story older than the object itself. His repertoire is populated by characters that rise from the collage with the force of a lucid dream. He does not seek to imitate reality but to reincarnate fragments of it. As curator Rodrigo Alonso described, his art is a “vital philosophy" — a gesture that defies consumerism and embraces the possibility of reviving the forgotten.
Color —present with striking intensity in his recent work— arrived through an internal shift: his encounter with Milo Lockett, which not only redefined his palette but also his way of sharing his universe. Since then, Yeyati's work pulses with a more playful energy, without losing its symbolic depth.
Yeyati does not merely create images —he builds an emotional archaeology from the remnants of everyday life. Each work is a story made of time, memory, and waste; a rescue act that restores humanity to matter. From that gesture —profoundly plastic and profoundly human— his art speaks to those willing to look beyond the surface.
