'Behind bars' is one of the first pieces of my new 2019 series 'Nowness in B&G'. It was realised in my studio in NYC.

'Nowness in B&G' (B&G-Black & Gold) regroups several small sizes works that capture nowness in society. It can be based on personal photographs of everyday life or images I am captured by.

'Behind bars' depicts a woman in gold clothing looking through the bars of her jail materialised with strips of canvas. I was interested in the irony of this image in representing the imprisonment of a person wearing what appears to be wealthy. The fact that the jail bars are nothing more than simple pieces of fabric also suggests this jail of hers is not as hard as it seems.


TECHNICAL DETAILS

Some parts of the painting have gold acrylic which gives the painting another beautiful dimension under different lighting.
The artwork is sold as-is and ready to hang.

Best known for his cross-cultural approach, Oscar Lett stands out by his bold looking paintings prominently using black and contrasting metallic colours. Based in NYC, the Parisian artist loves to embrace the influences of the countries he lived in. After moving to London to study at Central Saint Martins, Oscar then moved to Kyoto as he sought teaching from the masters of Nihonga (traditional Japanese painting). Appropriating each culture and their aesthetics, O.L. developed a unique style depicting a world where opposites can coexist and where people overcome their struggles in impossible urban jungles. Working in large-scale and always craving bigger, Oscar naturally moved to New York in 2016 and made the street his new playground. Since then Lett has been developing a wide portfolio of murals in Europe and the U.S., allowing his fine art and street art practices to inspire one another.
