- Augusta Cry 4x4 - 2
Original artwork description
This is not a portrait. This is a meltdown. A face too perfect to survive intact — shattered into 16 silver-glazed, tear-streaked tiles, and yet it stares right through you. Unfiltered. Undeniable. Welcome to “Augusta 4x4 - 2”, where Jérôme Cholet takes model-worship to the edge of emotional collapse — and pushes it over.
The subject? Austrian model Augusta Alexander, a face known from billboards to runways, now dissected like an ancient deity on a 21st-century altar. Each square in this photographic collage pulses with raw precision. Think Instagram grid meets Greek tragedy, then dunked in silver spray paint and sealed with epoxy resin — a polished sarcophagus for our obsession with curated male beauty.
But wait — there are tears. Real, cinematic, almost manipulative tears. Are they genuine? Is it performance? Does it matter?
This is Cholet at his most dangerous: seductive and self-aware, tender and twisted. It's Wolfgang Tillmans meets Pierre et Gilles, but after midnight, in a mirror made of chrome. You don’t know whether to cry, kiss it, or hang it in your luxury Berlin loft and invite strangers to get confused.
“Augusta 4x4- 2” isn't just art. It's lust. pain. and control — freeze-framed and for sale.
Buy it, darling. Before your conscience sobers up.
