ATTITUDE by Corentin Sauvage
Corentin Sauvage works with the material of history — archival photographs, layered and colourised into compositions that feel simultaneously excavated and entirely contemporary. ATTITUDE centres a figure whose posture and gaze project an unmistakable self-possession, the word itself embedded in the image as both title and declaration. The vintage photographic base, saturated with deliberate colour, creates a tension between era and attitude: old forms carrying new energy. The result is a portrait that stops you, then holds you.
Printed as a canvas print, Sauvage's rich, layered tones acquire additional depth on the woven surface. The texture amplifies the tactile quality of the collage aesthetic, making this canvas art print feel as much crafted as printed — exactly as the work intends.
