ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Le Guépard is not a depiction of speed in motion — it is the moment just before it explodes. The animal is frozen in a state of absolute focus, where power is compressed, contained, and ready to be released.
The composition centers on the gaze. Calm, sharp, and unwavering, it dominates the surface and imposes silence. Nothing moves, yet everything is charged. The body dissolves into texture, while the face emerges through hundreds of cut marks that evoke tension, muscle memory, and instinct.
The fragmented stencil lines echo vibration rather than form. This is not fur, it is energy. The background absorbs the animal instead of framing it, reinforcing the idea of camouflage, patience, and survival. The cheetah does not seek attention — it waits.
This artwork speaks of controlled power, strategic restraint, and dominance without aggression. Le Guépard embodies mastery through precision rather than force. A silent, predatory presence that commands space without noise.

About the artist
I am a French stencil artist whose work explores contrast — between instinct and precision, chaos and control, heritage and contemporary expression. My practice combines spontaneous, textured backgrounds with meticulously hand-cut multi-layer stencils.

I have exhibited alongside major figures of the urban art scene such as L’Atlas, C215, Carole B, Wawapod, and Jo Di Bona at the SPERA ART FAIR.

My work has been collected throughout Europe, with more than 300 artworks sold internationally.

I also create live painting performances for major institutions and brands, including Disneyland Paris.
Each artwork is a unique original. While stencils may be reused, every background is created instinctively, ensuring that no two works are ever identical. My approach revisits iconic figures and symbols through tension, restraint, and emotional impact rather than literal representation.

SHIPPING
The artwork will be carefully packed using professional, reinforced materials to ensure maximum protection during transport.

Seller's Story

French stencil artist, I offer here original works entirely handmade. Each painting is created on canvas using stencils that I draw and cut out myself, then reinterpreted on unique and spontaneous backgrounds. My work draws inspiration from pop culture, mythological figures, artistic icons, and contemporary characters, with an aesthetic blending street art and contemporary art. All artworks for sale are unique pieces (no editions, no reproductions), signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. I ship each work with the utmost care, in a secure and tracked package, to France and internationally.
