NEVER LAZY IN LOVE
SUPAKITCH
SupaKitch, a Parisian-born artist who has worked many metropolitan cities including Paris, Biarritz, Los Angeles and New York. The artist’s passion for street art, mangas, graffiti and tattoos and the hip-hop culture are elements that appear to be omnipresent in his works. In the 1990s, he met fellow graffiti artist Hazy and music producer Eone, which inspired him to explore works combining various techniques of painting, photography and graphics in exploring the theme of music.
The present lot Never Lazy in Love is strongly infused with musicality and rhythm entices one to explore SupaKitch’s animatic fairy tale world, whereby the red panda, fox like creature appears to be suspending mid-air below a cloud of intensely colored foliated blossoming florets and leafy sprigs among animatic heads. The artist’s has created a universe with Asian influences, pop-romantic and musical where anthropomorphic creatures such as the Supanimal, who looks like a red panda, a fox and a bird, are used as metaphors. Through these miraculous and enticing depictions, SupaKitch created a world where the characters are regarded as an extension of himself that represent the different aspects of his personalities. The representation of these imageries further conveys the artist’s innermost emotions. In this regard, SupaKitch likens painting as a process that parallels expressing his emotions in his private diary, where beneath these imagines lie the different emotions of the artists.
SupaKitch has collaborated with brands such as Sixpack, Brendan Monroe, Wayne Horse, Koralie where the artist painted murals in the brand’s various shops across Europe, Dusseldorf, Copenhagen, Paris, San Sebastian and Lisbon. SupaKitch had his first major solo show based upon an original concept he called “Ubiquity in 2007. He has also been exhibiting worldwide in galleries in Paris, Taipei and Miami.
