AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

TRUE COLLECTOR'S WORKS with very few galleries worldwide
NET PRODUCTION COST: 10 hours of Popléa's work + 1 FRAME + 1 PVC-CAST CHASSIS + VISUAL = 350 euros

The kinetic work of Popléa rests on a visual technology that reveals two entirely different images depending on the viewing angle.
Left view: a first composition appears.
Right view: a second image takes its place.
Between them, over nearly 180°, the piece gradually transforms in motion, creating an immersive and changing visual experience as the spectator moves.

The artist Popléa:
If you own this work, you are holding an authentic piece signed Popléa.
But be aware: Popléa is a pseudonym.
They have not yet revealed their identity—voluntarily. This choice is part of a broader artistic project, a form of experiment:
Create without a name, without status, without biography.
The work alone. The image alone. What it evokes. What you feel.
The artist behind Popléa is already exhibited, recognized, and collected—but chose to explore another path, freer. To refuse filters, codes, discourses.
To refuse that it is always the same people—galleries, experts, networks—who decide what has value.
Perhaps what you own is the beginning of something.
Or perhaps it is simply a work that speaks to you, here and now.
Both options are beautiful.
And deep down, perhaps that is the true luxury.

The work is hand-signed, delivered ready to hang, in a 4x4 packaging with insured shipping included.
Happy bidding

Recent buyer comments:

"Very happy with my purchase! The piece received is magnificent; you can immediately feel the technical skill and the work it required. The packaging was particularly careful."

"Exceptional packaging for a work that is equally so! Thanks to the artist for this quality work."
