Description from the seller
W for Wesselmann — The Artphabet
Edition 4/10 — 60 x 60 cm
This artwork is part of The Artphabet, an artistic project developed by digital artist Cess, where each letter of the alphabet pays homage to great figures of contemporary art.
The piece interprets the letter W as a direct nod to Tom Wesselmann's visual universe, one of the leading figures of Pop Art. The composition centers on volumetric, sensual lips—iconic within his work—reinterpreted here in a three-dimensional, polished, contemporary key.
The intensely red lips, slightly parted, become the central element of the piece, evoking Wesselmann’s direct, provocative, and erotically charged visual language. The inclusion of lit cigarettes introduces a visual narrative that refers to pop culture, consumption, and the representation of desire in modern society.
The treatment of the shapes is clean and bold, with smooth, glossy surfaces that reinforce the advertising and object-based aesthetics typical of Pop Art. The minimalist composition on a neutral background allows the piece to stand out with strong presence, focusing attention on the contrast between color, form, and meaning.
Completely created in 3D (CGI), the work has been modeled and rendered with a sculptural approach, where every element—from the curvature of the lips to the texture of the cigarettes—has been carefully crafted to achieve a striking and contemporary visual presence.
The Artphabet has achieved notable international diffusion, being published in numerous specialized media in art, design, and visual culture, establishing itself as a prominent series within contemporary digital art.
Cess is an artist specializing in digital art, CGI, and artificial intelligence, with a solid track record and collaborations with international brands such as Apple, Google, Prada, Vogue, and MTV.
The piece is presented in high-quality Giclée printing on poly/cotton canvas, ensuring faithful reproduction of color, volumes, and nuances of the original digital work.
