Description from the seller

ARCA LUDENS (2026) - Mixed media on canvas — pigment inkjet print, brush-on varnish applied by hand · Digital painting · Hand-signed · 2026

Four masked children stand in a flowered meadow, facing a wooden arch placed distant on the horizon line. On the left, a girl in a red skirt holds a large gray wolf mask with a toothed jaw; the other three wear yellow bird masks with red crests.

The very expansive composition makes them look small in a desolate landscape, and the path leading to the arch is already traced in the grass. They are looking, not walking. It is this offset — the boat ready, the children motionless — that governs the whole canvas.

Impasto-like sky, blue and white swirled in broad movements; meadow built with short green and yellow brushstrokes dotted with small flowers; masks worked in textured, grainy paper surfaces that contrast with the precision of the arms and legs.

Technique: mixed media — pigment-ink print, brush-on varnish applied by hand, for the durable protection of the work.
Support: premium canvas stretched on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
Format: 40x60 cm
Signed ARCA LUDENS · Galerie Labo Joconde / Atelier Joconde · certificate of authenticity provided.

ARCA LUDENS is one of the creations bringing together artists Le Yack, Neo Pablo and Popsan within Atelier Joconde, a family studio where three sensibilities coexist: neo-realism, pop, and free figuration. Under the name ARCA LUDENS, the Studio revisits the flood at child height, in the tradition of magical realism and Nordic genre painting: heavy skies, flat prairies, papier-mâché animal masks, and an ambiguous fable where play and threat no longer distinguish themselves.

Each work is a unique piece.

Seller's Story

Galerie Joconde est un atelier familial et un laboratoire de création contemporaine, où trois artistes : Le Yack, Popsan et Neo Pablo, croisent leurs univers pour produire des collections originales. Loin d'une simple galerie de vente, c'est un véritable lieu de production où les styles se lient, se confrontent et donnent naissance à de nouveaux mouvements. L'atelier travaille aussi bien en création collective qu'en démarches individuelles : chaque œuvre proposée peut être le fruit du travail d'un, de deux, ou des trois artistes réunis. Toutes les œuvres proviennent directement de l'atelier des artistes, sans intermédiaire. Les originaux sont des pièces uniques. Chaque œuvre est signée et accompagnée d'un certificat d'authenticité, et expédiée avec un emballage professionnel adapté au transport international.
