Description
Street art here takes over with a direct graphic language. The deep black background isolates contrasting elements. Two wide eyes observe the viewer with an almost disconcerting neutrality. The green gaze stands out against an immaculate white.
In the center, a colorful rainbow draws a descending curve. This shape evokes a pout or a feeling of melancholy. The aesthetic borrows from the codes of comic books and pop art. The saturated colors recall the plastic and synthetic universe of modern consumption.
The artist uses the spray can to obtain sharp flat areas and precise gradients. The stencil work structures the composition. Two pink shapes come to close the composition at the base. This dialogue between childhood and provocation emphasizes a subtle social critique.
The visual balance rests on the symmetry of the shapes and the saturation of the pigments. This painting on paper associates street culture with rigorous graphic precision. The signature and the date mark the bottom of the support.
Presentation
Born in 1976, Gum is an emerging artist of the French street art scene. An inheritor of the street, he has been evolving along with his sole weapon: spray paint.
Acidulous, "bubble" and playful, plastic is the main focus of his artistic approach and the common thread of his favorite themes: advertisement, consumption, excessive consumption and sex. Just like our Earth is flooded with plastic and waste, his works are as well. While plastic is melting away due to global warning, the world is busy looking elsewhere.
Through the use of stencils, he breathes in life to his characters, with curves or a candy floss which he named Hello clito, Mr Masturbator or Foofoonette plastik, he portrays this in a brilliant manner combining provocativeness along with childish references and a porno-chic universe. He positions his work between innocent joys of childhood and a hate for prefabricated consumerism: a bi-faceted art.
His work has been exhibited several times in Montpellier, his adopted city, but also in Paris, Brussels, Munich, Berlin, Denmark, and Italy as he won during the Biennial of Naples.
