Description

On this authentic road sign, Lasveguix presents a new variation on his signature urban aesthetic. At the center, a female figure inspired by Obey's iconography emerges from a dense collage of poster fragments, shattered typography, and vibrant colors. The portrait's deep blue contrasts with the layers of torn paper surrounding it, evoking the ephemeral and dynamic nature of city walls.

The reflective texture of the panel, still visible beneath the collage, creates a subtle interplay of light and reinforces the contrast between the rigidity of street furniture and the expressive freedom of street art. The panel's red borders frame the composition, a reminder of its functional origins, now repurposed as an artistic medium.

The superimposed layers of paper, sometimes worn, sometimes vibrant, give the whole an almost sculptural depth. One perceives the accumulation of time, the traces of passages, the visual narratives that overlap to form a fragment of the city frozen in a moment.

With this work, Lasveguix blurs the lines between symbol, raw material, and urban aesthetics. He transforms a utilitarian object into a medium imbued with visual poetry, where the icon is reborn in the heart of urban chaos, between collective memory and artistic reinvention.
