Large Hermès orange resin apple by XTC. Approximately 14 cm in diameter and 17 cm high. Commercially produced resin sculpture customized, finished by hand by the artist XTC using acrylic paints and varnishes as well as vinyl. The edition number applies to the painted finish by the artist and not to the base object Numbered /30 and signed on the bottom, Certificate of Authenticity (COA) provided. The artwork sent is not the one in the photo but will be similar and unique. Careful and tracked shipping. Born in 1978 in the heart of France, XTC has shaped his artistic universe through his interest in Design, Pop Art, and more recently Street Art. This visual exploration has become a passion that had to be realized. XTC defines himself as a self-taught visual artist, aligning with the Pop Art movement through the subversion of contemporary consumer goods. His creativity expresses itself through the bold staging of icons of popular consumption (such as McDonald’s, Malabar, Chupa), which he makes clash with the world of luxury (including Chanel, Hermès, Veuve Clicquot champagne or even caviar) and Street Art, further blurring the already thin boundaries between these worlds. He expresses his art through sculpture, blending painting with all kinds of resins, plastics, and sometimes mineral materials. He is inspired, among others, by Banksy, Keith Haring, Orlinski, Andy Warhol, Obey, and advertising and addictions in general. All potential defects or imperfections are an integral part of the work.
