ARTIFICE DÉCÉDÉ IS AN ANONYMOUS ARTISTIC PRACTICE
THAT REFUSES TO LET THE VALUE OF AN ARTWORK
BE DETERMINED BY THE FACE, GENDER, ORIGIN,
SOCIAL STATUS OR IDENTITY OF ITS AUTHOR.

IN AN ERA WHERE PERSONAL IMAGE,
SOCIAL PERFORMANCE AND DIGITAL VISIBILITY
OFTEN TAKE UP MORE SPACE THAN THE WORK ITSELF,
ARTIFICE DÉCÉDÉ CHOOSES ERASURE.

THE WORKS OPERATE AS SIGNALS,
VISUAL INTERVENTIONS AND CULTURAL REFLECTIONS.
THEY QUESTION SOCIAL HIERARCHIES,
STEREOTYPES, MECHANISMS OF VALIDATION
AND THE WAY THE WORLD CONSUMES ART AND IDENTITIES.

HERE, ART IS NOT A TOOL OF SEDUCTION.

AN ARTWORK SHOULD BE ABLE TO BREATHE
WITHOUT THE IDENTITY OF ITS AUTHOR.
