Description

On this genuine, repurposed road sign, Lasveguix deploys one of his signature artistic techniques: a vibrant collage, saturated with fragments of posters, shattered typography, and urban textures that seem torn from the city walls. At the heart of this composition emerges the figure of Marianne, inspired by Obey's aesthetic, a symbol of freedom and civic engagement.

Marianne's silhouette emerges like a revelation amidst a controlled visual chaos. The torn layers, vibrant colors, and overlapping paper create a sense of depth reminiscent of the natural erosion of urban walls, where posters follow one another, overlap, and ultimately tell a collective story.

The reflective background of the sign, partially visible beneath the artistic interventions, creates a striking contrast between the rigidity of the traffic code and the free-spirited energy of street art. The splashes of pink paint, the graffiti, and the artist's signature reinforce the impression of an object taken from public space and transformed into a unique work of art.

With this piece, Lasveguix plays on boundaries: those between republican symbol and pop culture, between regulated space and personal expression, between erasure and revelation. The work becomes a fragment of the city, frozen in time, where Marianne is reborn in the heart of urban chaos.
