AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"Trump power" is a way to synthesize how the President of the United States addresses the world, including within his own country. It is, through this international gesture, an image with which he operates without restraint. The work is a mold of a feminine hand painted with gold paint diluted to 30% with pure metal. It recalls his fascination with gilding, which he has used to excess in the Oval Office of the White House.
This work can be fixed to the wall or placed on your desk (dimensions: 31.5 x 7.5 x 6.5).
Your choice...

International artist whose work rests on the dichotomy between memory and oblivion. Memory, in my view, is the indispensable element that links our body to the world. However, while our culture strives to engrave history with a burin, I strive to inhibit, deconstruct, or even erase my own memory. A vast undertaking, the exercise of forgetting… The body is only the support of this memory of which it is dependent, even needy. It constructs it, models it, and transforms it. And if anamnesis translates from Greek as the recalling of memory, for my part I hunt it to better part with it.
