ABOUT THE ARTWORK
“Persée et Méduse” is a striking reinterpretation of one of the most powerful and iconic scenes from Greek mythology.
In this composition, Alexandre Petrus captures the dramatic moment when Perseus holds the severed head of Medusa — a timeless symbol of courage, victory and confrontation with fear. Far beyond a simple mythological reference, the artwork explores the eternal tension between heroism and monstrosity, beauty and danger, control and chaos.
The piece draws its strength from its bold composition and immediate visual impact. Perseus is represented with sculptural elegance and determination, while the head of Medusa becomes both a trophy and a haunting presence. The cool blue palette enhances the intensity of the scene, giving the work a mysterious, almost icy atmosphere that reinforces its mythological aura.
As always, Alexandre Petrus combines the precision of hand-cut stencil work with a textured and instinctive background, creating a unique balance between classical inspiration and contemporary urban energy. The result is a work that feels both timeless and modern — a piece where ancient mythology is transformed into a bold statement of strength and visual power.
“Persée et Méduse” is an artwork that naturally commands attention. It is ideal for collectors drawn to mythology, symbolic imagery and highly distinctive contemporary pieces with strong decorative presence.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Alexandre Petrus is a French stencil artist whose work stands out for its instantly recognizable visual identity, combining the raw energy of street art with the refinement of meticulous hand-crafted technique.
Specialized in hand-cut stencils, he has developed a singular artistic language where precision, contrast and emotion come together in powerful compositions. His work bridges digital creation, traditional craftsmanship and contemporary painting, giving each piece a strong presence and a distinctive signature.
What makes Alexandre Petrus’ work especially compelling is his unique balance between control and spontaneity. While each subject is built through an exacting stencil process, the backgrounds are created instinctively, with textures, movement and layered color variations that ensure every artwork is truly unique. This approach reflects what defines his artistic philosophy: originality in repetition.
His universe moves freely between wildlife, mythology, iconic figures, pop culture and poetic scenes, always with the same ambition: to create artworks that are both visually striking and emotionally resonant.
Over the years, Alexandre Petrus has built a growing base of collectors across Europe and internationally, drawn to the uniqueness, consistency and strong identity of his work. His artworks are appreciated for their immediate impact, their refined execution and their ability to bring character into a space.
Each piece is an original artwork. Alexandre Petrus does not produce prints or editions. Even when a subject is revisited, the background, atmosphere and energy of the piece are always different, making every work a one-of-a-kind acquisition.
Alexandre Petrus is also known for his murals created across France and for his live painting performances during weddings and corporate events. His artistic practice reflects a rare combination of technical discipline and instinctive expression, making his work particularly appealing to collectors looking for contemporary pieces with both authenticity and strong visual impact.
