There are heroes you don’t merely look at: you find them again.
With Les Gardiens d’Euphor, Goldorak reclaims the place he still occupies in a generation’s memory. Monumental, almost architectural, he dominates the composition while Actarus and his allies advance in the foreground as a guard ready to resume the fight.
The black background turns the whole into a secret file from another time: technical schematics, mechanical silhouettes, Japanese signs, paint projections and gestural traces overlap like fragments of a recovered archive. The golds on the horns, deep blues, red and white highlights give the image immediate energy, between vintage manga and contemporary street language.
SKE isn’t here trying to reproduce a memory. He reactivates it. Goldorak’s universe becomes an artistic material: pop culture, Japanese graphical codes, televised memory and urban painting meet in a dense, frontal, deliberately spectacular composition.
It’s a work designed for those who instantly recognize the silhouette, the colors, the attitude… and everything they awaken. Not simply an image of Goldorak, but a way to hang on your wall a part of your own story. Les Gardiens d’Euphor speaks to collectors who never quite left their heroes. They simply grew up with them.

- FRAMING TIPS

Your work is shipped rolled and protected in a tube.

Upon receipt, remove it carefully and lay it flat for 48 to 72 hours so it regains its shape before framing.

ISO formats (A3, A2, A1…) are very easy to frame with standard frames available at hardware stores or home décor shops.

Personally, I use Leroy Merlin aluminum frames: simple, elegant and economical; they showcase the works perfectly.

- ARTIST BIO:
SKE is a self-taught French artist with a multidisciplinary background who grew up in the culture of the 80s/90s, inspiring a large portion of his body of work.

He constantly explores new techniques: acrylic painting, collage, stenciling, graffiti, urban installations and digital art. His dynamic, expressive compositions, often with double meaning, 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 risen noticeably. Winner of the first prize in the Urban Master competition (2023), then elected Revelation of the Year at the Color Jam Challenge (2025).
SKE was selected as “Artist of the Month” in October, and also featured in an American art magazine confirming his international recognition.

His works have already been shown in major venues in Europe, the United States and Asia, reinforcing his place on the contemporary art scene. In parallel, SKE has also established himself in the digital art market, a major trend in recent years, strengthening the appeal of his creations to collectors.

Iconic pop culture figures, bold graphics and textured surfaces define a style now essential.

SKE is undoubtedly an artist to follow 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 sits in a prestigious lineage. You can see in his line the visual efficiency of Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, while incorporating the subversion of Banksy or the pioneer Blek le Rat. His works create a bridge between eras: they revisit the classics, not hesitating to parody Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, Hokusai’s The Great Wave or Picasso’s deconstructed forms to juxtapose them with a modern urban aesthetic akin to Mr. Brainwash or Kaws.

POP CULTURE & NOSTALGIA
Drawing on the collective imagination, SKE manipulates icons of our childhood. He stages Disney’s universe with figures like Mickey or Pinocchio, and the symbolic greed of Scrooge McDuck. The influence of gaming, comics and graphic novels is omnipresent: from Nintendo and the legendary Game Boy, to Pokémon creatures (Pikachu, Charizard, Ash), and the Marvel Super Heroes. SKE crystallizes these memories in the manner of Daniel Arsham or Takashi Murakami.

LUXURY, HYPE & CONSUMER SOCIETY
In a style sometimes recalling Alec Monopoly, the artist plays with the codes of success and materialism. The dollar symbol sits beside luxury and fashion logos. His canvases capture the “Hype” aesthetic: featuring 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 to mention mass-consumption icons like Coca-Cola. It’s vibrant art, with textured finishes that sometimes evoke the glossy finish of Jeff Koons or the facets of Richard Orlinski.

This work is ideal for enriching a collection or adding a dynamic touch to your interior.
