Description from the seller
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
PERSEUS AND MEDUSA is a bold contemporary tribute to one of the most iconic scenes in Greek mythology.
With Athena’s guidance, Perseus faces the monster and returns victorious, holding Medusa’s severed head — a timeless image of courage, strategy, and mythological force.
The soft pink background creates a surprising contrast, bringing freshness and light to a subject charged with power and legacy.
A striking piece for collectors drawn to mythology, symbolic figures, and artworks with real presence on the wall.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Alexandre Petrus is a French stencil artist with a strong and instantly recognizable visual identity. His signature technique — the hand-cut double-layer stencil — separates light and shadow into two distinct stencils, layered onto a spontaneous, hand-painted abstract background. The result: a sharp, iconic figure rising from a vibrant, textured chaos of color.
To date, more than 450 of his original artworks have found their way into private collections across 10+ countries, from France and Spain to the Netherlands, Germany, the UAE, and the US. He has performed live painting for major French institutions including Disneyland Paris, created large-scale murals for corporate headquarters, and exhibited in several French street art festivals (Grimaud, Perpignan, Venelle). His work is currently shown at Galerie Spot 72 in Le Mans.
His subjects move between mythology, pop culture icons, wildlife and emotionally charged scenes. Whatever the theme, the signature remains: precise stencil work, instinctive background, and the small smiling "AP" monogram — Alexandre's two initials fused into a face — sprayed on every original piece.
Each artwork is a unique original. No prints, no editions — every background is painted live on the canvas, so no two pieces are ever the same. And every stencil Alexandre cuts by hand is retired after a small series, never mass-produced, never repeated indefinitely. A genuine acquisition for collectors looking for identity, presence, and a strong contemporary signature that stays scarce.
SHIPPING
The artwork is carefully wrapped in bubble wrap and protective plastic film, then secured in a custom-sized cardboard box for safe international transit. The signed certificate of authenticity is included inside the package.
