Jean-Marc Bustamante — Trophée (Trophy)
Jean-Marc Bustamante

Trophée (Trophy)

Jean Marc Bustamante's "Trophée" combines screenprinted red imagery on Plexiglas with a galvanised iron cutout overlay, creating a layered composition that plays with transparency and materiality. The work exemplifies Bustamante's conceptual approach to sculpture and printmaking, investigating how different materials and processes can interact to produce meaning beyond their individual components. The title's reference to a trophy suggests themes of achievement or commemoration, while the industrial materials and graphic technique undermine any straightforward celebratory gesture.
