ABOUT THE ARTWORK
“Le Hibou” is a powerful tribute to one of nature’s most fascinating and symbolic creatures.
With its intense gaze and highly detailed plumage, this composition captures the silent strength, wisdom and mystery that have always been associated with the owl. More than a simple animal portrait, this piece evokes a nocturnal presence — calm, watchful and almost sacred.

The close-up framing creates an immediate visual impact, drawing the viewer directly into the bird’s eye and expression. The cool palette of soft blues, lilacs and subtle pink undertones gives the work a dreamlike and atmospheric dimension, while reinforcing the sense of stillness and introspection. The background remains vibrant and textured, creating a beautiful contrast with the precision of the stencil work.

Every detail of the feathers has been carefully hand-cut, revealing Alexandre Petrus’ signature mastery of layered stencil technique. The result is both graphic and refined, raw and elegant. This balance between technical precision and emotional presence gives the artwork a strong decorative power while preserving depth and authenticity.

“Le Hibou” is a piece that naturally commands attention. It brings character, serenity and symbolic intensity to any interior, making it a striking addition for collectors of contemporary art, animal-inspired works and unique urban pieces.
