Description from the seller
Tea Time – XL Canvas Artwork by La Mama
A massive gorilla, seated calmly at a table set for tea, contemplates the city through a window open onto an almost unreal urban landscape. The atmosphere is hushed, intimate, almost nostalgic. The scene diverts the codes of the classic portrait and still life to create a suspended moment, where brute force meets an unexpected gentleness.

Details of the work:
• Edition: Limited to 10 copies (2/10)
• Dimensions: 46 x 66 cm (including white border)

• Framing: Artwork sold without frame
• Delivery: Careful and secure packaging
• Certificate of authenticity: Provided by email
⸻
Technical and artistic work:
The work was created using advanced mixed technique, combining photography, digital painting and manual retouching. The play of light, textures and depth aims to give the scene an almost pictorial credibility, while preserving a strong narrative and symbolic dimension.
⸻
About La Mama:
La Mama develops a universe where the animal becomes a mirror of humanity. Through reimagined scenes, she questions contemporary society, its rituals and its contradictions, with an approach that is at once poetic, ironic and visually elegant.
⸻
Why this title?
Tea Time evokes a ritual of calm and civility, deliberately contrasting with the subject's nature. This dissonance emphasizes the gentle absurdity of the scene and invites reflection on our own habits and staging of daily life.
