What if beauty resided in diversity? By mixing two opposing aesthetics, César Malfi seeks to make them complementary.
To the beautiful ideal embodied by the Venus de Milo , the pinnacle of Hellenistic sculpture, he added the free outline of a face inspired by Fernand Léger.
In a disruptive but constructive approach, he explores confrontation, overturns codes and canons, and seeks fusion.
Alternating volumes and lines, interrupting forms to extend them in a different way, dissociating to better associate, César revisits the notions of ruptures and continuity. It is then his experience of graffiti that helps him rethink space by structuring his composition using colored flat tints, distantly derived from his lettering patterns.
Syncretic, his work then sums up his journey and his artistic quest, rich in all his experiences. This fresco is thus dedicated to women, to their gentleness and their beauty in their plurality. An ode to femininity.
