The artist Vanessa Fodera
Founder of ARTOYS DESIGNER, the French artist Vanessa Fodera develops a universe blending Pop Art, Street Art, contemporary design and popular culture.
She is notably known for her artistic transformations of the commercial PLAYMOBIL XXL bases, which she uses as supports to create unique sculptures.
Her works are collected in France and internationally by collectors, companies and private clients. She also creates bespoke pieces.
Her work is showcased on her official website, on social networks and for several years on Catawiki.
TIME IS MONEY
With TIME IS MONEY, Vanessa Fodera transforms a commercial PLAYMOBIL XXL base of about 65 cm into a contemporary Pop Art sculpture fully reworked.
The work combines painting, projection effects, graphic compositions, transfers, assemblages, decorative elements and a glossy lacquer finish.
The palette is deliberately explosive, mixing green, pink, violet, orange, black and gold.
The references to money, luxury watches and Rolex are integrated into a composition around value, time and success.
Several messages run through the sculpture:
TIME IS MONEY
THE ONLY RULE IS THAT THERE ARE NO RULES
NO WAR
CROISE EN TOI
These elements create a contrast between material wealth, individual freedom, passing time and personal values.
The watch, the crowns, the monetary signs and the graphic references to luxury are deliberately juxtaposed with the more human messages present throughout the artwork.
The hat, the arms, the chest, the back, the legs and the shoes have all undergone specific artistic treatment.
Mixed media
The creation combines:
- preparation and transformation of the support
- painting and projection effects
- gradient and layering work
- graphic composition
- printing and transfer
- raised decorative elements
- assembly
- metallized finishes
- varnish and glossy lacquer finishing
The whole is produced in Vanessa Fodera’s workshop.
This is not a simple decorative object, but an original work created from a deeply transformed commercial base.
