About The Artwork

This painting was made after living in Japan. It came from my encounter with Japanese people and their mores, notably their way to conceive relationships and sex. The contrast between the sweet couple at the foreground and the collage of Japanese porn at the background expresses the strong dichotomy there is in this country.

TECHNICAL DETAILS The background of the piece is a collage of pages from comic porn magazines bought in Japan. The collage is also made of two different comics with different papers and has been sealed and varnished with PVA glue. This work is a diptych and the two panels are attached to each other and can be folded at any angle. The painting is best presented in an angle, displayed like an open book and sitting on the floor with a safety dispositive. Both panels are made of stretched paper-canvas. The artwork ships in a crate and is delivered ready to set up.

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.
