XTC Artist - Mc Caviar Red

Red and gold McCaviar cone with its mother-of-pearl spoon by XTC. Original sculpture designed, manufactured and finished by hand by the Artist XTC using polyethylene, resin and acrylic paints and varnishes and a genuine mother-of-pearl spoon. Probably XTC’s most emblematic work to date, in a red and gold version. A détournement of a McDonald’s cone, a luxurious future dish in a fast-food version? Not impossible! This is not a cardboard McD cone; it was created from plastics and painted by XTC. The glass dome is an integral part of the work. Signed and numbered 1/15 underneath, Certificate of Authenticity (COA) provided. The copy in the photo is not necessarily the one that will be sent. Careful and trackable shipping. Born in 1978 in the heart of France, XTC has shaped his artistic universe through his interest in Design, Pop Art, and more recently Street Art. This visual exploration has evolved into a passion that needed to be realized. XTC defines himself as a self-taught visual artist, aligning with the Pop Art movement, through the subversion of contemporary consumer goods. His creativity is expressed through the bold staging of icons of popular consumption (such as McDonald’s, Malabar, Chupa), which he makes clash with the world of luxury (including Chanel, Hermes, Veuve Clicquot champagne, and even caviar) and Street Art, further blur­ring the already tenuous boundaries between these worlds. He expresses his art through sculpture, blending painting with all kinds of resins, plastics, and sometimes minerals. He draws inspiration, among others, from Banksy, Keith Haring, Orlinski, Andy Warhol, Obey and advertising and addictions in general. Any possible flaws or imperfections are an integral part of the work. The base is wood and may feature a slightly raised grain.
