À propos

Édition limitée dans le temps

Ce triptyque en édition limitée présente une image en noir et blanc esquissée par Slawn dans son café londonien Beaubeaus. Les traits légèrement estompés confèrent à cette œuvre une multidimensionnalité, encore accentuée par la superposition des images.

Si, au premier abord, l'œuvre peut sembler un simple gribouillage, un examen plus attentif permet de distinguer des personnages immédiatement reconnaissables issus de l'univers visuel de Slawn.

The Artist

Olaolu Slawn

Olaolu Slawn (b. 2000, Lagos, Nigeria) is a Nigerian-British artist and designer whose energetic practice brings together street art, graffiti, pop imagery, and Abstract Expressionism. His bold paintings feature playful, cartoon-like figures, exaggerated faces, vivid colors, and expressive marks, drawing on his Yoruba heritage and contemporary themes around identity, race, and society.

Slawn’s creative journey began in Lagos skate culture, where he worked at Wafflesncream and co-founded the streetwear collective Motherlan, before moving to London. He began painting during the 2020 lockdown and quickly developed a distinctive visual language that has since extended into large-scale murals, design, and collaborations. In 2023, he became the youngest and first Nigerian-born artist to design the BRIT Awards statuette and set.
