AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The technique :
A unique optical kinetic work — breathtaking.
Two perfectly opposite images on the sides, merged at the center in a visual effect never seen in the history of kinetic art. The gaze slides, hesitates, returns. It’s more than a painting: an experience.
PopLéa pushes boundaries with this symmetrical, hypnotic, and entirely innovative creation. An essential masterpiece for contemporary art enthusiasts and those interested in visual perception.

The Artist:
If you are in possession of this work, you have in your hands an authentic piece signed Popléa.
But you should know: Popléa is a pseudonym.
He or she has not yet revealed his or her identity—voluntarily. This choice is part of a larger artistic project, a form of experiment:
Create without a name, without status, without a biography.
The work alone. The image alone. What it evokes. What you feel.
The artist behind Popléa is already exhibited, recognized, and collected—but wanted to explore another, freer path. Rejecting filters, codes, and discourses.
Refuse to allow the same people – galleries, experts, networks – to always decide what has value.
Maybe what you have is the beginning of something.
Or maybe it's simply a work that speaks to you, here and now.
Both options are beautiful.
And deep down, perhaps that is true luxury.

The work is accompanied by a paper certificate of authenticity including some of the artist's hairs to prove his DNA.

Under a secret pseudonym, this established artist offers rare works directly to collectors, away from the traditional circuits.
When their true identity is revealed, the value of these early pieces is expected to increase significantly.

A unique opportunity to collect exceptional art, at the dawn of a new chapter in contemporary creation.
