ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Bob l’Éponge is not a children’s character here — it is an icon stripped of innocence and reloaded as a symbol of excess, joy, and cultural saturation.
The exaggerated smile, wide eyes, and open posture verge on imbalance. This is happiness pushed to its limit, almost uncomfortable. The character appears frozen in a permanent state of enthusiasm, questioning whether joy can become performative, mandatory, even artificial.
The stencil fragmentation breaks the cartoon smoothness. Lines cut through the figure, introducing tension beneath the surface cheerfulness. What seems playful at first glance reveals a deeper reading: a character trapped in its own image, designed to entertain endlessly.
The pink background reinforces ambiguity. It oscillates between sweetness and saturation, pop culture and emotional overload. The work balances humor and critique, nostalgia and distortion.
Bob l’Éponge becomes a contemporary totem — a reflection of a society addicted to smiles, speed, and constant stimulation. Light in appearance, sharp in intention.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
I am a French stencil artist whose work explores contrast — between instinct and precision, chaos and control, heritage and contemporary expression. My practice combines spontaneous, textured backgrounds with meticulously hand-cut multi-layer stencils.
I have exhibited alongside major figures of the urban art scene such as L’Atlas, C215, Carole B, Wawapod, and Jo Di Bona at the SPERA ART FAIR.
My work has been collected throughout Europe, with more than 300 artworks sold internationally.
I also create live painting performances for major institutions and brands, including Disneyland Paris.
Each artwork is a unique original. While stencils may be reused, every background is created instinctively, ensuring that no two works are ever identical. My approach revisits iconic figures and symbols through tension, restraint, and emotional impact rather than literal representation.
