Description
In this work, Lasveguix explores the technique of collage and torn posters to revisit a well-known graphic icon: Marianne, popularized by Shepard Fairey (Obey). At the center, the stylized and ornamented face emerges through layers of colorful, typographic, and handwritten posters, creating a play of gradual revelation.
The composition gives the impression of a fragment torn from an urban wall, like a section of visual palimpsest where successive layers of posters tell a collective story. By merging Obey's visual universe — a symbol of resistance and counterculture — with his own artistic language, Lasveguix creates a work that is both raw and poetic.
The tears, overlays, and textures echo the materiality of the street, where images fade and are constantly reinvented over time. The piece questions the tension between icon and contemporary appropriation, between collective memory and personal expression.
Presentation
Guillaume Picart, known as Lasveguix, is a French artist from Seine-Saint-Denis, who began his artistic career as a graffiti artist under the pseudonym of Guix along the Canal de l'Ourcq, when he was teenager. After a break in artistic creation, he returned to his passion in 2022 and is currently working on the production of numerous works in various media, mainly inspired by the influence of pop art.
Lasveguix is directly inspired by Jacques Villeglé and Raymond Hains, and uses photographs of famous faces as well as torn posters to create his paintings. He then covers these supports with graffiti and splashes of paint, which gives life to colorful and powerful works, reminiscent of sections of urban walls torn from the street.
His artistic signature is based on his ability to give relief and volume to his paintings. He cultivates a real taste for the texture and material of torn paper, thus creating an impression of movement, by superimposing successive layers of paper.
