Description from the seller
Description of the work
Work by Sandra Fontenas, a French visual artist born in 1973 in La Rochelle.
Title Latex skin
Year of creation: 2024 Edition year: 2026
Process & technique: Printing in a professional photo lab, print on Fujicolor Crystal Archive Supreme Lustre silver-halide paper 220 g/m². Creation made using digital software and the generative AI software Midjourney, based on textual descriptions only; no reference image was imported into the creation process.
Edition: 1/30 — limited to 30 copies. Each print is hand-signed by the artist and numbered on the back, guaranteeing the authenticity and traceability of the work within the limited edition.
Provenance: Direct sale by the artist. Sandra is also represented by WeAreNewComers (Paris) and Desyre.ai (Dubai & Germany), and permanently exhibits at Galerie ADOR Experience (Île de Ré, France).
Documentation: Certificate of authenticity included, available in print or by email.
Condition: Excellent.
Framing: Unframed — ready to frame. The artist recommends a presentation with a wide mat, or even extra-wide, which gives the image additional depth and breathing space. This suggestion is, of course, optional — the work adapts to all presentation choices.
Format: 30 × 30 cm.
Shipping: Professional packaging with non-lint cotton gloves — worldwide shipping.
About the artist
It is first through photography that Sandra’s need to create reveals itself. By manipulating her images as support and medium, she brings forth works located between real and imaginary.
Fascinated by the artistic direction possibilities offered by artificial intelligence, her approach remains instinctive and emotional. She guides and shapes AI as a material: choosing, blending, and kneading descriptions, keywords, iterations and parameters, until obtaining the exact shot of her own imagination.
Thus, if the photographer captures the present moment of a reality, Sandra — the IA-graph — captures a moment of her imagination, transcribed into reality by the generated image.
Her style is recognizable in the playful blurring of borders: between reality and imagination, between photography and IA-graphy, between the masculine and the feminine. Love, melancholy, identity and the intimate are at the heart of creations she presents with sensuality and lyricism.
