About the artwork

Blending reality with make-belief, Auguste’s works feature real life celebrities with equally iconic fictional characters. His works often celebrate icons which have become part of our collective pop culture and history. Surrounded by superheroes and luxury brands, supermodel Kate Moss is overlaid onto a cut-out of Mickey Mouse, altering our image of the nostalgic cartoon character. Auguste used unconventional mediums such as aluminium and automotive varnish to create the work’s glossy surface. The rich colour palette and style are also reminiscent of 1960s Pop art.



About the artist

Born in 1977, French artist Auguste hails from the famed Bordeaux region of France. Though he studied disciplines other than fine arts, Auguste always felt compelled and drawn to the art world. Ultimately he followed his passion for the visual arts, finding his unique artistic vision and voice and is now known for his colorful contemporary Pop Art-inspired and nostalgia-evoking works.
Auguste terms his oeuvre “Generations” as his works revolve around a central theme of pop culture icons from the past. Conjuring memories of previous eras, his pieces depict celebrities, super heroes and other iconic figures, in conjunction with American and French marks to provide the viewer with a reminiscent glimpse of past epochs.
