SKE - Cocaine Bullet - Suprême Red

- Work provided with a certificate of authenticity, signed and numbered by the artist SKE.
- Number 04/50
- « Addicted to style. Overdosed by brands. »
Symbol of power, elegance, desire… and sometimes of dependency.
Behind the veneer of luxury, “Cocaine Bullet” questions the blurry boundary between admiration and addiction.
This series of 4 works, inspired both by the codes of luxury and the culture of excess, denounces with irony our thirst for possession and recognition.
Each piece is a cartridge of illusion: shiny, attractive, but meaningless once consumed.
Because deep down, the real overdose is that of appearances.
- Supreme theme, Coca-Cola and the Louis Vuitton monogram

- ARTIST BIO:
SKE is a self-taught French artist and all-rounder who grew up in the 80s/90s culture, influencing a large majority of his artistic works.

He constantly explores new techniques: acrylic painting, collage, stenciling, graffiti, urban installations and digital art. His dynamic and expressive compositions, often with a double reading, merge the raw energy of street art with the visual impact of pop art.

After an exceptional year in 2025, SKE’s market value has seen a notable rise. Winner of the first prize at the Urban Master contest (2023), then elected Artist of the Year at the Color Jam Challenge (2025).
SKE was selected as “Artist of the Month” by Opulence Gallery in October, and he also benefited from a feature in an American art magazine confirming his international recognition.

His works have already been exhibited in major venues in Europe, the United States and Asia, consolidating his place on the contemporary art scene. In parallel, SKE also makes his mark in the digital art market, a major trend of the last two years, enhancing the appeal of his creations to collectors.

Icons of pop culture, bold graphics and texture play define a style now essential.

SKE is undoubtedly an artist to watch, to start or enrich a collection with rising value.

Artist Listed & Awarded – Pop Art & Contemporary Street Art

A UNIVERSE BETWEEN HERITAGE AND MODERNITY
SKE’s work sits in a prestigious lineage. His line carries the visual efficiency of Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, while incorporating the subversion of Banksy or the pioneer Blek le Rat. His works bridge the eras: they revisit the classics, not hesitating to twist Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, Hokusai’s The Great Wave, or Picasso’s deconstructed forms to juxtapose them with a modern urban aesthetic close to Mr Brainwash or Kaws.

POP CULTURE & NOSTALGIA
Drawing from the collective imagination, SKE manipulates icons of our childhood. He stages Disney’s universe with figures like Mickey or Pinocchio, and Scrooge McDuck’s symbolic greed. The influence of gaming, comics and superheroes is omnipresent: from the Nintendo universe and the legendary Game Boy, to Pokémon creatures (Pikachu, Charizard, Ash), via Marvel superheroes. SKE crystallizes these memories in the manner of Daniel Arsham or Takashi Murakami.

LUXURY, HYPE & CONSUMER SOCIETY
In a style sometimes reminiscent of Alec Monopoly, the artist plays with codes of success and materialism. The Dollar symbol sits beside logos of luxury and fashion giants. His canvases capture the “Hype” aesthetics: you’ll encounter the sneaker world (Nike Air Jordan, Adidas, Off-White) and haute couture (Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Louboutin). He also incorporates automotive adrenaline (Ferrari, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG) and precision watchmaking (Rolex, Tag Heuer), not to forget mass-consumption icons like Coca-Cola. It is vibrant art, with textured finishes sometimes recalling Jeff Koons’s glossy surfaces or the facets of Richard Orlinski.

This work is ideal for enriching a collection or adding a dynamic touch to your interior."
