“The artwork by Remy Aillaud, titled ‘Fashion Rocket’, is a unique and provocative piece that challenges our ideas about welth and power.
Handcrafted using steel, mixed media, and epoxy, the piece features a dynamite with its exterior made of money, with dollar bills covering the surface of the piece. Alongside the dynamite, there is also a lighter, adding another layer of meaning to the work.
With a limited edition of only 1 copy produced, this artwork is a rare and valuable piece measuring 30x12x12cm. Accompanied by a beautiful box, it adds aesthetic and symbolic value to any art collection.
Through this piece, Aillaud invites us to reflect on the nature of money and power in our society and how they are often used in destructive ways. The image of the dynamite made of money is a powerful critique of rampant consumerism and the culture of money at all costs, while the lighter suggests a latent threat of destruction.
Overall, ‘Fashion’ is a unique and impactful work of art that invites reflection on the social and economic issues that permeate our world.”
Born in 1987, sculptor and designer, Rémy Aillaud has made a place for himself in contemporary art with his Motorcycle Robots and Missiles.
In a society freshly dominated by new technologies, Rémy Aillaud devotes his art to the symbols of modernity and gives a primordial place to the theme of the robot. Thus, he recovers parts of motorcycle to create hybrid figures (crossing of a human and a mechanical machine) thanks to a work of torsion and ingenious assembly.
In his works, the artist highlights the signature of renowned manufacturers such as Ducati. This valorization of the brand is found in his "Missiles of luxury" Chanel, Louis Vuitton Supreme or Louboutin, which like the new technologies, are dictates of contemporary society.
