About the Item
Clem$ was born in 1974 in France. He is self-taught (autodidact), and showed talent for drawing and caricature from a young age. After an early interest, he diverted for a time—he explored electronic music before returning fully to art. His work has been exhibited internationally (e.g., in Paris, London, New York, Miami, Tel Aviv) and is represented in galleries and auction contexts. He is known in the art-market: for example, his works have sold at auction in various price ranges.
Clem$’s work draws heavily from pop-art traditions (think: Andy Warhol, iconic characters) and from street-art/graffiti culture. He uses recognizable pop-culture icons (cartoons, luxury brand iconography, street-symbols) and subverts them: for example a Disney-style duck with gangster or money imagery. (See e.g., “Give Me Your Money” by Clem$). His paintings are characterised by acid/bright colours, bold outlines, high contrast and a mixture of “clean” pop elements with “rough” street art touches (drips, splatters). The visual effect: a punchy “chromatic manifesto” — as described by one source. Clem$ appropriates familiar imagery (icons, cartoons, brand logos) and “perverts” them: he twists expectation, uses irony or critique. He combines hand-sketching, graphic outline work and urban “splatter” or graffiti-style marks. He primarily works on canvas, with acrylic paint, and uses brushes after an initial sketch. His process often begins with drawing/sketching (charcoal or pencil) then applying bold blocks of colour, then overlaying urban marks (drips, splashes). The works often bear his signature and date, and combine elements of pop-iconography + street marks + brand symbolism. Themes include consumerism, luxury, pop-culture, the myth of the “hero” or “icon” in contemporary society. For example: money, power, brand logos, familiar cartoon characters turned into commentary. His style carries a playful provocation: humour + critique.

Located in PARIS, FR
Limited Edition, Light box
Falcone is a self-taught artist and designer with deep roots in the history of art.
The art foundation of his grandfather, passionate about geometric and kinetic works, was the playground of his childhood. Carmelo Arden Quin's unstructured paintings intrigued him, he played with the reliefs of Agam and those of Soto. Circles, squares, endlessly supported by shape and color, lead him to go further, to multiply the image without end.
He positions his creations between experience and contemplative work. The artist chooses LEDs, neon lights, optical fibers...
