ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The Batman is not a portrait of a hero — it is the representation of a state of mind. Silent, vigilant, restrained. A figure suspended between shadow and responsibility.

The composition focuses on tension rather than action. The body is powerful yet contained, the gaze introspective rather than aggressive. This Batman is not in motion; he is waiting.
The moment before intervention, where control matters more than force.
The layered stencil work fractures the armor into sharp, architectural lines, reinforcing the idea of protection built through discipline and sacrifice. The textured background, mineral and cold, evokes an urban environment eroded by time — a city that demands guardians rather than saviors.

Light and shadow collide across the figure, emphasizing duality: justice versus darkness, solitude versus duty. The absence of narrative elements allows the viewer to project their own interpretation, making the artwork timeless rather than cinematic.
This piece speaks to collectors drawn to iconic imagery reinterpreted with restraint, depth, and psychological intensity. A powerful symbol of resilience, vigilance, and moral tension.

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 work focuses on iconic figures, powerful animals, and symbolic imagery, reinterpreted through tension, restraint, and emotional intensity.

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.
