U for Henri Matisse — The Artphabet — New Letter
Edition 2/10 — 60 × 60 cm

New piece from The Artphabet, presented for the first time on Catawiki. This letter had never before been offered on the platform.

This work belongs to a limited edition of only 10 copies, with this piece being number 1/10.

Part of The Artphabet, one of Cess's most recognizable projects, a collection in which each letter of the alphabet becomes an independent piece inspired by some of the great references in art and visual culture.

Since its launch, The Artphabet has achieved notable international diffusion, sparking interest in the fields of art, design, typography and digital creativity. The project has circulated widely in media and specialized platforms, becoming one of the most popular and recognizable series within the artist's work.

In this piece, the letter V is transformed into a homage to Henri Matisse, reinterpreting his characteristic language of organic shapes and color within a contemporary three-dimensional composition. The structure of the letter is built from gentle, sinuous plant elements, inspired by the universe of his famous cut-outs, combining intense and contrasted colors that provide rhythm, balance, and a strong visual identity.

The work translates the spontaneity and formal simplicity associated with Matisse into a digital sculptural object, turning typography into an organic composition where form, color and volume act as protagonists.

The piece was developed through a completely digital 3D process (CGI), modeling and shaping each element by hand with special attention to composition, materials, color, and final finish.

Cess is an artist specializing in digital art, CGI and artificial intelligence, with more than a decade of experience in the creative sector and professional collaborations with international brands such as Apple, Google, Prada, Vogue and MTV, among others.

The work is presented as a high-quality Giclée print on poly-cotton canvas, offering an accurate reproduction of the detail, color and textures of the digital original.

Limited edition to 10 copies. This piece: 1/10.
