XTC Artist - Cerise Hermes 30 cm

Hermes Apple / Cherry resin sculpture by XTC. Approximately 15-17 cm in diameter and 30 cm tall with the stem. Commercially manufactured resin sculpture customized, hand-finished by the artist XTC using acrylic paints and varnishes and vinyl. The edition number applies to the painted finish by the artist and not to the base object. Numbered / 30 and signed underneath, Certificate of Authenticity (COA) provided. (The shipped piece is not necessarily the one in the photo but will be similar) Careful and tracked shipping. Born in 1978 in the heart of France, XTC has shaped his artistic universe through an interest in Design, Pop Art, and more recently Street Art. This visual exploration blossomed into a passion that had to be realized. XTC defines himself as a self-taught multidisciplinary artist, aligning with the Pop Art movement, through the subversion of contemporary consumer goods. His creativity expresses itself through the bold staging of icons of popular consumption (such as McDonald’s, Malabar, Chupa), which he makes clash with the world of luxury (including Chanel, Hermes, Veuve Clicquot champagne, and even caviar) and Street Art, further blurring the already tenuous boundaries between these worlds. He expresses his art through sculpture, blending painting with all kinds of resins, plastics, and sometimes minerals. He draws inspiration, among others, from Banksy, Keith Haring, Orlinski, Andy Warhol, Obey, advertising and addictions in general. All possible defects or imperfections are an integral part of the work. HAND-FINISHED “Sculpture made for commercial purposes, hand-retouched by the artist XTC using acrylic paints.”
