ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Le Gorille embodies raw strength held in restraint. The figure does not roar, does not attack — it observes. Power here is silent, dense, controlled.
The composition focuses on the face and upper body, bringing the viewer into direct confrontation with the animal’s gaze. Each stencil cut builds the fur like a rhythmic pattern, almost organic, creating a vibrating surface that blurs the line between body and environment. The gorilla seems to emerge from the background rather than stand in front of it.
Green and mineral tones dominate the canvas, evoking nature, depth, and endurance. This palette reinforces the idea of an ancient force — something rooted, immovable, and timeless. The contrast between light and shadow sculpts the face, revealing intelligence as much as physical dominance.
The stencil technique plays a key role in the tension of the piece. Precision meets instinct: the rigor of the cut opposes the wildness of the subject. The result is not a simple animal portrait, but a symbolic figure — authority without violence, strength without excess.
This artwork speaks to collectors drawn to primal imagery, inner power, and balance. A commanding piece that anchors a collection through presence rather than spectacle.
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 powerful symbols through tension, restraint, and emotional depth rather than simple representation.
SHIPPING
The artwork will be carefully packed using professional, reinforced materials to ensure maximum protection during transport.

À propos du vendeur
Artiste pochoiriste français, je propose ici des œuvres originales réalisées entièrement à la main.
Chaque tableau est peint sur toile à partir de pochoirs que je dessine et découpe moi-même, puis réinterprétés sur des fonds uniques et spontanés.
Mon travail s’inspire de la pop culture, de figures mythologiques, d’icônes artistiques et de personnages contemporains, avec une esthétique mêlant street art et art contemporain.
Toutes les œuvres mises en vente sont des pièces uniques (pas d’édition, pas de reproduction), signées et accompagnées d’un certificat d’authenticité.
J’expédie chaque œuvre avec le plus grand soin, en colis sécurisé et suivi, vers la France et l’international.
