Steve McQueen, the " King of Cool",was the ultimate man's man.He is remembered as a great actor, car racer and notorius playboy.... One of the biggest Hollywood stars of the '70s. His whole life McQueen lived on the edge. he was a fan of speed and racing: "How are the brakes? Don't know I never touched em." This painting is a mixed media artwork. I use a technique of collage and marouflage. I collect images, posters, magazines, I tear, I coat, I glue and I scratch! I revisit the icons of American and French cinema, Pop-Rock stars, Comics...mythical characters who are part of our culture and our collective unconscious. Original and unique handmade painting. Collages, painting and varnish finish. The sides of the work are painted. Artwork signed by hand.

ORIGINALITY- STYLE- INFLUENCES- COMPOSITION My work is part of the neo pop trend. My artistic influences, essentially pop art and Warhol, street art and Jean michel Basquiat, as well as poster artists like Villeglé, the new realists of the of the 60s. I create assemblies combining photography, painting, collages and inlaying of different materials. Popular themes such as nostalgia and celebrity culture, icons (Marilyn), the woman, object of consumption, representation of the fantasies of a society of the spec- tacle society. References to the cinematographic culture - the emblematic figures of the 7th art Comic book heroes, familiar themes, echoes of our childhood memories. Urban inspirations, city architectures, the luxury of department stores, advertisements logos, illustrating our cultural differences, globalization. I work by series, precise themes, and I put forward a whole dynamism of colors, and my creations are driven by the joy of living. Dynamic compositions and colors and "supercharged" colors. My collages reflect the process of my mind, consisting of discovering, cutting. I play with images, colors and words (visual and verbal). Bringing to life the story of a person, famous or not (main focus), hidden behind the behind the imagery that surrounds it, like a kind of patchwork, an imagined biography. Inspired by Rauschenberg's work, I integrate ordinary found objects and as- seem -cans, corks, fabrics, cardboard, vinyls....... a way to denounce the over consumption. Influenced by cubism -Picasso, Braque- with the introduction of materials, elements integrated in the composition of the painting and Dadaism (display of propaganda). DIVERSITY OF TECHNIQUES -MATERIALS AND SUPPORTS Collages of torn papers, mottled papers, glossy images of magazines, selected and accumulated according to a specific theme, and glued according to a specific technique. and accumulated according to a very precise theme, and glued according to a very specific technique.
