SONA (1989) - Custom chair (Urban Collection)

The Artist: SONA

Originating from Paris, SONA is a committed artist whose creative essence draws its roots from the pure subversion of the underground graffiti movement, having forged his first forays in the arteries of the Paris metro.

Over the years, SONA has built a prolific and radical body of work, passionately pushing the boundaries of urban expression. His distinctive aesthetic and bold vision quickly vaulted him to the status of a key figure on the contemporary scene.

Deeply rooted in artistic activism, SONA orchestrates striking urban interventions. His work challenges established dogmas and denounces the excesses of contemporary capitalism. His art, resolutely subversive, asserts absolute freedom of expression in the face of a surveillance society. He is today waging a fierce battle against the growing hegemony of artificial intelligence in the art world.

Beyond his solo achievements, SONA is an active member of the avant-garde collective NBZ (Notre Belle Zone), a pool of artists elevating urban art to the status of a true societal mirror.

Represented by prestigious galleries in France and Belgium, his work has managed to appeal to and win over collectors around the world.

The Work: Custom chair

The centerpiece of the "Urban Collection", Custom chair is an original and striking work that sublimes the very instrument of transgression. This approach offers a fresh, aesthetic perspective on a historically controversial practice.

This sculptural creation demonstrates perfect mastery of mixed techniques. It captures the pure essence of urban graffiti to stand as a true manifesto against the capitalist appropriation of street codes by artificial intelligence. Where machines generate meaningless images for mercantile purposes, it celebrates the human gesture. It glorifies the unique texture of a hand-shaped work, imbued with authenticity and lived experience that only the artist can convey.
