  The artwork “Pokemon” created by Remy Aillaud is a wall sculpture measuring approximately 80x80x15cm. It is made using handcrafted steel and mixed media techniques and is presented in a frame.
  
  The sculpture depicts a vest full of dynamite with various characters from the Pokemon universe attached to it. This image can be interpreted in different ways but suggests a contrast between cute and childlike elements (the Pokemon characters) and a dangerous and potentially lethal object (the vest full of dynamite).
  
  The artwork is a reflection on the complexities of the modern world, including the mixing of unexpected elements and how technology can be used in both positive and negative ways. The sculpture can also be seen as a critique of entertainment culture, which often mixes cheerful and fun elements with violent and dangerous imagery.
  
  Overall, “Pokemon” is a thought-provoking and intriguing artwork that can generate many discussions and reflections.
• About the artist

  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.
