Artwork location: Monaco
This captivating work features a weightless astronaut, floating majestically amidst an invigorating explosion of vibrant color. The artist used a skillful technique of layering paint to capture both the precise realism of the spacesuit and the dynamic energy of the surrounding bursts of color. The neutral, almost minimalist background contrasts remarkably with the vivid, varied hues that seem to emanate from the silhouette of this space explorer. The splashes of color—ranging from intense reds to luminous yellows to vibrant greens and blues—add a sense of movement and infinity, reflecting the vastness and unpredictable beauty of the universe. The contrast between the detailed realism and the abstract splashes of color gives the whole a surreal dimension. The astronaut's impeccably rendered reflective helmet symbolizes both solitude and wonder in the face of the unknown. Its sharp contours stand out strongly, drawing the eye towards the center of the work, while its open arms suggest a sense of freedom and endless exploration. This juxtaposition of rigorous scientific elements and artistic spontaneity makes this work a unique piece that celebrates both human technology and the creative unpredictability of art. It embodies an invitation to dream, explore and marvel at the unexplored mysteries of life and the universe.

Works in prints from Valerian Lenud
Presentation
Valérian Lenud, or Valé, is a French artist born in 1990.
Now based half year in France and the other in Mexico after a decade of travel, Valé has developed an aesthetic that combines figurative compositions with pop-graffiti styling, both as murals and canvas artworks.
With a strong compassion and belief in human spirit, his works can be seen as a mirror to our common humanity.
Combining various techniques, his work is primarily constructed with numerous layers of hand-cut stencils, painted with a mix of aerosol, brushes, palette knives and markers. Within this practice he combines chaotic shapes and graffitis with subtle shading stencils to achieve captivating portraits.
Valérian’s work contrasts recognizable pop-iconography with local culture imagery in order to portray the multifaceted identity of each culture he encounters during his travels in more than forty countries.
A big part of his work is based on his own photographies taken during self made social projects with communities such as Massaïs, Mayans, Quechuas or Sadhus.
This juxtaposition pays tribute to urban art by contrasting the grey of the streets with the intense colors that represent the vibrancy of life.
Valérian collaborates with galleries, social projects, festivals and brands.
His artwork can be found in France, Monaco, New-York, Japan, Norway, Netherlands, Spain, México, Argentina, Chile and Colombia.
To name some places, he exhibits with Galerie Saint Martin in Saint-Tropez, Courchevel and Arcachon, ArtsRange in Honfleur, with Urban Art Signature in Miami, Carré d’Artistes in New-York and Amsterdam, Baga06 in México; He has been covered by Forbes, StreetArt NYC, Konbini, C’est de l’Art, Cultura Colectiva and commissioned for projects with Jaguar Land Rover, Montana Colors, Comex or Santander.
