Some images belong to history. Others cross through it.

In this work, LASVEGUIX tackles one of the most recognizable faces in the world: the Mona Lisa. But far from a quotation, he performs a radical transformation.

The image is torn, fragmented, altered — as if ripped from time and from the eyes that have fixed it for centuries.

And yet, at the heart of the chaos, the smile remains. Elusive. Intact.

That is the full strength of this piece: destroy the icon to better reveal its power.

Imagine this piece hanging.

From afar, you recognize a familiar face. Almost reassuring.

Then you approach. The tears appear. The layers collide. The fragments tell another story — rougher, more contemporary.

And yet, despite everything, it still looks back at you.

As if nothing could really erase an icon.

This work captures that precise moment: the image tipping between eternity and disappearance.

Why acquire this work?
Universal icon revisited: direct dialogue with art history
Unique work: no reproductions possible
Ideal format: a precious piece easily integrated into a collection
Display case framing: contemporary showcase, object-like effect
Emerging artist: real potential for added value

This is a work that goes beyond decor — it questions our relationship with mythical images.

LASVEGUIX is a contemporary artist whose work rests on tearing, collage and recomposition. Influenced by urban aesthetics and the great movements of the 20th century, he develops an instinctive and impactful oeuvre.

Each piece is unique, built in a dialogue between destruction and mastery.

His work today attracts a new generation of collectors who are sensitive to artworks with strong visual and conceptual identity.
