S.O.S
24" x 24" in
(60 x 60 cm)
"S.O.S.", Arsène LAPIE, series "Pénibilité." 1/3, 2024.
"S.O.S." by Arsène LAPIE is an insightful commentary on the complexities of modern life. It presents a society where distress signals are ignored or misunderstood, where superficial concerns overshadow real, invisible struggles. Through the use of street art techniques, LAPIE effectively calls attention to these issues, encouraging viewers to confront the silent crises that persist in our everyday lives.
The artwork serves as a critique of a society where real problems are ignored or misinterpreted. It highlights the disconnect between the visible and invisible aspects of distress—whether it be fake news (canulars), quack medicine (bobologie), or mental health struggles (invisible illnesses). In this sense, LAPIE seems to argue that the true sources of suffering in contemporary life are often dismissed, while surface-level concerns dominate the public discourse.
By using street art materials, LAPIE invites the viewer to question the role of art in contemporary society. Street art, with its roots in protest and subversion, offers a raw and direct commentary on the dissonance between social structures and the needs of individuals. The artist’s choice to portray an urgent yet misunderstood message emphasizes the frustration and isolation that many experience today.
