About the Item

LA CAGE LÀ OÙ LES GENS PLEURENT Ed. of 100 Polystone Engraved signature 12 x 9 x 7 in 2018 ''One of the fastest rising stars on the contemporary pop art scene, Sandra’s stellar rise to fame has been as surprising to her as it has obvious to more seasoned art lovers. Since her debut with Reed Projects in 2013 Sandra has gone on to worldwide fame with sell out shows at home and abroad and media coverage to rival that of some of the worlds leading names in contemporary art. ' With work demanding to be dissected beyond it's surface value, Chevrier's portraits are quite literally torn between the fantastical heroics and iconography of comic books and the harsher underlying tragedy of oppressed female identity and the exposed superficial illusion therein. Exhibiting a male-dominated world within her 'Cages', Chevrier's subjects denounce the role given to the female counterpart therein, refusing to play the part of seducer or victim. In the greater body of Chevrier's work, the images used within the 'cages' range from scenes of conflict, triumph and defeat. The artist is choosing to highlight the fragility of the superhero, their own struggles and weaknesses, exposing the humanity within the superhuman. Despite all the playfulness of the thing itself and all the “CRASH BAM POW,” superheroes are also fragile. We are merely human; men and women and we are entitled to the flaws and errors.
