Description from the seller

Description of the work

Work by Sandra Fontenas, French visual artist, born in 1973 in La Rochelle.
Title: Fragment of Being
Year of creation: 2024
Year of edition: 2026

Process & technique:
Professional photo lab print, silver-halide paper Fujicolor Crystal Archive Supreme Glossy 220 g/m².
Created with the help of digital software and generative AI software.

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 regularly exhibits at Galerie ADOR Experience (Île de Ré, France).
Documentation: Certificate of authenticity included, available in paper form 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 any presentation choice.

Size: 50 × 40 cm.

Shipping: Professional packaging with non-shed cotton gloves — worldwide shipping.

About the artist

It is primarily through photography that Sandra feels the need to create become evident. By manipulating her images as both support and medium, she gives rise to works that lie between the real and the 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 she achieves the exact likeness of her own imagination.

Thus, if the photographer captures the present moment of a reality, Sandra—the AI-artist—captures a moment of her imagination, rendered into reality by the generated image.

Her style is recognizable in the play she makes with blurring the boundaries: between reality and imagination, between photography and IA-graphy, between masculine and feminine. Love, melancholy, identity and the intimate are at the heart of creations she presents with sensuality and lyricism.
