MEDSAN - Electric Madonna (Pikachu) - Hand signed

MEDSAN - Electric Madonna (Pokémon x Haring) - Hand signed
Acrylic painting and markers on canvas - Hand-signed - 2026

Original work painted by hand. Signed by Medsan, an artist known for his détournements of cultural icons and his pop compositions with strong narrative impact.

In this bold work titled "Electric Madonna," Medsan orchestrates a fascinating visual collision between classical sacred iconography, 1980s street art, and 1990s pop culture. The artist adopts the instantly recognizable graphic style of Keith Haring (thick black outlines, dancing figures, lightning bolts and hearts) to revisit the timeless theme of the Virgin and Child.

However, the divine child is here replaced by the absolute idol of an entire generation: Pikachu. The frontal, aureoled, majestic composition starkly contrasts with the frenetic energy of the black "dancing figures" that swirl around it on a vibrant red background. The electric yellow of the Pokémon punctures the purity of the Madonna’s white veil. With much irony and tenderness, Medsan questions our new contemporary idols and transforms a pop culture icon (the video game) into a true sacred relic.

A striking, colorful, and deeply symbolic piece, perfect for a discerning Pop Art collector.

Atelier Joconde is a studio bringing together artists around a living, plural contemporary creation. Established as a true place of artistic production, the studio operates both in collective creation and in individual approaches, depending on projects and works. Atelier Joconde is also a family venture. Le Yack, a contemporary figurative painter, develops a narrative and introspective oeuvre with cinematic and realistic influences. By his side, Medsan, oriented toward pop art painting, explores color, modern iconography, and visual culture. Finally, Neo Pablo engages in a more instinctive pursuit, blending abstract art, naïve art, and figurative abstraction. Each work is conceived, created, and followed within the studio, sharing a common artistic standard and a unique identity for each artist.
