Two worlds, two visual signatures, one creation. The contrast between Banksy’s black silhouette and Basquiat’s expressive colors gives birth to a contemporary, bold piece that is immediately recognizable. Limited to only 30 copies, this 22 cm tall sculpture is aimed at collectors passionate about Pop Art, Street Art and contemporary art. An original piece signed by SKE, designed to make two legends of urban art dialogue. - ARTIST BIO: SKE is a self-taught French artist and all‑rounder who grew up immersed in the 80s/90s culture, inspiring a large portion of his artistic work. He constantly explores new techniques: acrylic painting, collage, stenciling, graffiti, urban installations and digital art. His dynamic and expressive compositions, often with double meaning, blend the raw energy of street art with the visual impact of pop art. After an exceptional 2025, SKE’s value has risen notably. Winner of the first prize in the Urban Master contest (2023), then named Revelation of the Year at the Color Jam Challenge (2025). SKE was selected as "Artist of the Month" by Opulence Gallery in October, and he also received a feature in an American art magazine confirming his international recognition. His works have been exhibited at major venues in Europe, the United States and Asia, solidifying his place on the contemporary art scene. In parallel, SKE has also established himself in the digital art market, a major trend of the last two years, strengthening the appeal of his creations to collectors. Icons of popular culture, bold graphics and texture play characterize a style now essential. SKE is undeniably an artist to follow, to begin or enrich a collection with rising value. Rated & Awarded Artist – Pop Art & Contemporary Street Art A UNIVERSE BETWEEN HERITAGE AND MODERNITY SKE’s work sits in a prestigious lineage. His line shows the visual efficiency of Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, while incorporating Banksy’s subversion or the pioneer Blek le Rat. His works bridge eras: they revisit classics, not hesitating to parody Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, Hokusai’s The Great Wave, or Picasso’s deconstructed forms to confront them with a modern urban aesthetic close to Mr Brainwash or Kaws. POP CULTURE & NOSTALGIA Drawing from the collective imagination, SKE manipulates icons of our childhood. He stages the Disney universe with figures like Mickey or Pinocchio, and Scrooge McDuck’s symbolic greed. The influence of gaming, comics and manga is omnipresent: from the Nintendo universe and the legendary Game Boy, to Pokemon creatures (Pikachu, Charizard, Ash), including Marvel superheroes. SKE crystallizes these memories like Daniel Arsham or Takashi Murakami. LUXE, HYPE & CONSUMER SOCIETY In a style sometimes recalling Alec Monopoly, the artist plays with codes of success and materialism. The Dollar symbol sits beside luxury and fashion logos. His canvases capture the “Hype” aesthetics: the sneaker world (Nike Air Jordan, Adidas, Off-White) and haute couture (Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Louboutin). He also includes automotive adrenaline (Ferrari, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG) and precision watchmaking (Rolex, Tag Heuer), not to forget mass consumer icons like Coca-Cola. It is vibrant art, with textured finishes evoking the glossy surface of Jeff Koons or the facets of Richard Orlinski. This work is ideal to enrich a collection or bring a dynamic touch to your interior.
