ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This artwork captures Vi at the exact moment where resilience becomes identity.
Not in combat, not in collapse — but in controlled tension.
The dominant blue background evokes both cold resolve and emotional depth. It is the color of inner conflict, loyalty, and suppressed rage. Vi is portrayed upright, almost statuesque, her gaze directed forward, carrying the weight of her past without lowering her head.
The sharp stencil cuts emphasize scars, structure, and strength rather than softness. The figure feels carved rather than painted — as if resilience itself had a physical form. Every contrast reinforces the idea of a character forged by impact, loss, and survival.
This is not a fan artwork.
It is a portrait of endurance.
Vi embodies a generation shaped by chaos, yet refusing to surrender to it. The artwork speaks to those who recognize strength not as violence, but as self-control — power held in reserve.
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 symbols, and contemporary myths, reinterpreted through tension, presence, and materiality.
