Although only 10 pieces were produced, each work preserves a singular character: the manual intervention of SKE, the painting of the sculpture, and the different finishes applied individually make every edition a unique variation within the edition.

With Remix the Master, SKE continues the INKO-94 universe in a deliberately lush, joyful, and irreverent composition, where several icons of contemporary art and street art meet in a single space.
At the center of the work, there is an evocation of Jean-Michel Basquiat’s Pez Dispenser, with its black dinosaur topped by the famous crown. Around it cross the smiling flower of Takashi Murakami, the dancing silhouettes characteristic of Keith Haring, and Banksy’s Girl with Balloon. Crowns, hearts, drips, spontaneous marks, and flat areas of color connect these references into a true visual collage.
Rather than simply juxtaposing them, SKE lets them collide. Each symbol is moved, transformed, and integrated into a new graphic whole. The title Remix the Master sums up this intention: to take images that have become familiar in our visual culture and make them dialogue in a freer, more instinctive, and contemporary language.
And in the foreground, INKO-94 leaves the image to physically enter the artwork.
The little robot is presented as a real three-dimensional sculpture, created and hand-painted in acrylic by the artist. Placed in front of the composition with its 94 spray can, INKO seems to be the author of this intervention himself.
Born, in the narrative imagined by SKE, from a programming error and an explosion of Montana 94 paint, INKO-94 is a robot designed to obey but who preferred to create. He paints, diverts, and transforms not to destroy, but to awaken the images surrounding him. He becomes, here, the link between Basquiat, Banksy, Keith Haring, and Takashi Murakami: a little free electron amid the masters.
Remix the Master thus sits at the boundary between street art, pop art, sculpture, and mixed media, with a depth construction that gives the work genuine presence as a collectible object.

- ARTIST BIO:
SKE is a French self-taught and versatile artist who grew up in the culture of the 80s/90s, inspiring the majority of his artistic works.

He continually explores new techniques: acrylic painting, collage, stenciling, graffiti, urban installations, and digital art. His dynamic, expressive compositions, often with double meanings, fuse the raw energy of street art with the visual impact of pop art.

After an exceptional year in 2025, SKE’s market value has seen a notable rise. Winner of the first prize in the Urban Master contest (2023), then named Revelation 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. In parallel, SKE is also making his mark in the digital art market, a major trend of the past two years, reinforcing the appeal of his creations to collectors.

Icons of popular culture, bold graphics, and textural play characterize a style that has become indispensable.

SKE is undoubtedly an artist to watch, to start or enrich a collection with rising value.

Artist Rated & Awarded – Pop Art & Contemporary Street Art

A UNIVERSE BETWEEN HERITAGE AND MODERNITY SKE’s work is anchored in 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 bridge eras: they revisit the classics, not hesitating to rework Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Vermeer’s Girl 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 from the collective imagination, SKE manipulates icons of our childhood. He stages the Disney universe with figures like Mickey or Pinocchio, and the symbolic greed of Scrooge McDuck. The influence of gaming, comics, and the world of cartoons is omnipresent: from the Nintendo universe and the legendary Game Boy, to Pokemon creatures (Pikachu, Charizard, Ash), and the Marvel Super Heroes. SKE crystallizes these memories like a Daniel Arsham or a Takashi Murakami would.

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 “Hype” aesthetic: you encounter sneaker culture (Nike Air Jordan, Adidas, Off-White) and haute couture (Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Louboutin). He also includes automotive adrenaline (Ferrari, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG) and precision watchmaking (Rolex, Tag Heuer), not forgetting mass consumer icons like Coca-Cola. It is vibrant art, with textures that evoke the glossy finish 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.
