AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Numbered, hand-signed canvas edition – 40 × 40 cm
Adicta X — Medsan

Description of the work:

Under lighting as controlled as a Rembrandt masterpiece, a young woman with a melancholic gaze brings a golden capsule to her lips. The contrast is striking: the scene looks straight out of a 17th-century painting, but an anachronistic detail—the pill—shifts the work into our modern era.

Adicta X is part of Medsan's Renaissance collection, which revisits the codes of classical painting through contemporary symbols related to medicine and addiction. Here, beauty and fragility blend: the young woman is neither guilty nor a victim, but a figure representing our complex relationship with healing and addiction.

The work of chiaroscuro, the richness of the golden fabric, and the softness of the modeling give this portrait an aura that is both sacred and unsettling. Adicta X questions the role of care, desire, and temptation in a society obsessed with controlling the body and mind.

About the artist :

Medsan is a contemporary artist who questions the links between medicine and humanity. His work explores the fine line between care and excess, life and death, through symbolic compositions where anatomy becomes poetic language.
By transforming organs, bones and medical symbols into visual narratives, he opens a dialogue between scientific rigor and artistic imagination.
His works resonate particularly with health professionals, students and collectors, who recognize in his paintings an intimate resonance with the issues of the human condition.
