I’m so sad to present you today that Bicéphale Totem Collection Hiding Lilliput or parts of him, that hero, screaming in the screen during that f... invasion of Ukraine - ...with that hoping Ukraine will stand. With that hoping some heads of military and 'chequist' and 'silovikist' russian reformators could used their brains.
Why ? Because it's about living on hearth, among us at that possibilities to be united and to keep that doing in peace or stepping for self destruction. Then it's about saving democracy either against paranoid autocracies. Not to mention that a part of my grand grand family comes from Odessa and Orientale Bessarabia. It's about just saving for the good people from lies, alternatives, revisionist, tyrannic, genocidaire, facts. Saving an old and yet modern culture.
This Totem portraits variation comes from a 2004 draft of one on computer, sewn from a collected unconscious, certainly from feelings of filming from the time when I played the bad guys as an actor. Or more probably "Max" this role in the film "100 days" shot over 8 years and where I found myself alone in the world, an artist lost in all of Paris, trying to wake up this world. We are started in 1996, then 1998, then...
It results here a cross Storie of Lilliput (also created by Grégory Dreyfus) and Bicéphale -
Lilliput is that graphic naked human-body character with an eye for a head, who sometimes lives in surrealistic, expressionist, sardonic situations, and at other times, prophetic or erotic ones. Of course it reveals a tortured soul, vivid like an animal being skinned alive or that hyper sensible human hero, walking about on his own life, struggled often or enjoyed it a lot… But always with a pure, consciousness about life flow through him. He's like a superhero without superpower but ultimately conscient of it.
That Lilliput Art currency collection corresponds usually to unique physical artworks very dearly stored in Paris and brought to life through its launch on the blockchain.
