AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

- Limited edition of the work "Shoot the Dream" by the artist SKE
- Publisher: Atelier MONTMARTRE FineArt.
- FineArt print on museum-quality Hahnemühle art paper.
- ISO A3 format (42x29.7 cm) easy to frame.
- Edition number: 03/10

In this explosive scene, SKE distorts two popular icons: Lucky Luke and the balloon girl. But here the cowboy doesn’t shoot faster than his shadow… he shoots at a symbol.

The balloon, image of dream and innocence, bursts in mid-flight. Not to destroy, but to reveal. Like an invitation to step out of the illusions imposed by a world saturated with codes, brands and false desires.

Between dollars, references to consumerism and raw urban textures, the work captures the energy of street art to deliver a simple message: sometimes you have to blow up the dream… to create a real one.

A pop & street piece that is direct, visual and impactful, faithful to SKE’s universe: playing with symbols to turn them around.

- ARTIST BIO:
SKE is a self-taught French artist and all-rounder who grew up in the culture of the 80s/90s, inspiring a large part of his artistic work.

He constantly explores new techniques: acrylic painting, collage, stencil, graffiti, urban installations and digital art. His dynamic and expressive compositions, often with a double reading, blend the raw energy of street art with the visual impact of pop art.

After an exceptional 2025, SKE’s market value has seen a notable rise. Winner of the first prize in the Urban Master contest (2023), then elected Artist of the Year at the Color Jam Challenge (2025).
SKE was selected as "Artist of the Month" by the Opulence gallery in October, and he also benefited from a feature in an American art magazine confirming his international recognition.

His works have already been exhibited in major venues in Europe, the United States and Asia, consolidating his place on the contemporary art scene. At the same time, SKE also makes a mark in the digital art market, a major trend of the past two years, strengthening the appeal of his works to collectors.

Icons of popular culture, bold graphics and texture play define a style that is now essential.

SKE is clearly an artist to follow, to start or enrich a collection with growing value.

Listed & Awarded Artist – Pop Art & Contemporary Street Art

A UNIVERSE BETWEEN HERITAGE AND MODERNITY SKE’s work is part of a prestigious lineage. His line carries the visual efficiency of Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, while incorporating the subversion of Banksy or the pioneer Blek le Rat. His works create a bridge between eras: they revisit the classics, not hesitating to distort Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Vermeer’sGirl with a Pearl Earring, Hokusai’s The Great Wave, or Picasso’s deconstructed forms to confront them with a modern urban aesthetic akin to Mr Brainwash or Kaws.

POP CULTURE & NOSTALGIA Drawing on the collective imagination, SKE manipulates icons from our childhood. He stages the Disney universe with figures like Mickey or Pinocchio, and Scrooge McDuck’s symbolic greed. The influence of gaming, comics and graphic novels is omnipresent: from the Nintendo universe and the mythical Game Boy, to Pokémon creatures (Pikachu, Charizard, Ash), and the Marvel superheroes. SKE crystallizes these memories in the manner of Daniel Arsham or Takashi Murakami.

LUXURY, HYPE & CONSUMER SOCIETY In a style sometimes reminiscent of Alec Monopoly, the artist plays with codes of success and materialism. The Dollar symbol sits beside luxury and fashion logos. His canvases capture the aesthetics of “Hype”: you encounter sneaker culture (Nike Air Jordan, Adidas, Off-White) and haute couture (Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Louboutin). He also incorporates automotive adrenaline (Ferrari, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG) and precision watchmaking (Rolex, Tag Heuer), not to mention mass consumer icons like Coca-Cola. It’s a vibrant art, with textured finishes that sometimes evoke the glossy surface of Jeff Koons or the facets of a Richard Orlinski.

This work is ideal for enriching a collection or adding a dynamic touch to your interior.
