SKE - Goldorak - The Dragon Awakens

"Goldorak - The Dragon Awakens" – Ultra Limited Edition (10 copies) - New collection Edition number: 01/10 Artist: SKE Instagram artist SKE: ske_shakeyourart Mixed media: digital painting (Procreate AI Photoshop) Publisher: Atelier Montmartre Paris Premium art paper – ISO A2 format (42x59.4 cm) – Signed, numbered – Certificate included It only takes a silhouette and a double axe to hear the opening theme again. In Goldorak - The Dragon Awakens, the hero of our childhood screens faces a force that seems to precede all machines: a gigantic Japanese dragon. Standing on the rock, Goldorak faces the creature as its body coils between the clouds. Behind them, Mount Fuji, a red sun, a torii gate, and blooming cherry trees compose a Japan where the landscape’s beauty makes the confrontation even more striking. SKE here lets two imaginations dialogue: that of the protective robot and that of Japanese legends. To mechanical power answers the dragon’s organic motion. Deep blues, incandescent reds, and pinks of the flowers stand out against the softness of the clouds. Sharpened outlines, weathered textures, and a bustling composition reinterpret the language of Japanese prints when brought into contact with pop culture. Choosing to show Goldorak from behind places us at his side. We no longer simply look at our hero: we share this suspended moment, just before the confrontation. For a collector attached to Goldorak as to the Japanese imaginary, this composition brings together two passions. A strong presence from afar, a multitude of details to explore up close, and this intimate connection with a hero that time has not erased. A piece to keep in sight to relive this precise thrill: to be, once again, on Goldorak’s side. Specifications: • Limited edition of 10 copies • Printed on premium art paper • ISO A2 format (42x59.4 cm), easy to frame • Each copy signed and numbered by SKE • Includes certificate of authenticity • Shipped protected, reinforced packaging A rare edition that will undoubtedly become a flagship element of your collection. - FRAMING TIPS Your artwork is shipped rolled and protected in a tube. Upon receipt, remove it carefully, then lay it flat for 48 to 72 hours so it naturally regains its shape before framing. ISO formats (A3, A2, A1…) are very easy to frame with standard frames available at DIY or home décor stores. Personally, I use Leroy Merlin aluminum frames: simple, elegant, and affordable; they showcase the works perfectly. - ARTIST BIO: SKE is a self-taught French artist with a versatile hand who grew up in the 80s/90s culture, inspiring most of his artistic work. He constantly explores new techniques: acrylic painting, collage, stenciling, graffiti, urban installations, and digital art. His dynamic, expressive compositions, often with double meanings, blend the brute energy of street art with the visual impact of pop art. After an exceptional 2025, SKE’s value has risen notably. Winner of the first prize in the Urban Master contest (2023), then elected Revelation of the Year at the Color Jam Challenge (2025). SKE was selected as "Artist of the Month" in October and also featured in an American art magazine, confirming his international recognition. His works have already been exhibited in major venues in Europe, the United States, and Asia, consolidating his place on the contemporary art scene. At the same time, SKE is also making his mark in the digital art market, a major trend of the past couple of years, strengthening the appeal of his creations to collectors. Icons of popular culture, bold graphics, and tactile textures characterize a now-unmissable style. SKE is undoubtedly an artist to follow, to start or enrich a collection with rising value. Celebrated & Awarded Artist – Pop Art & Contemporary Street Art A UNIVERSE BETWEEN HERITAGE AND MODERNITY SKE’s work fits into a prestigious lineage. His line blends the visual efficiency of Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, while incorporating the subversion of Banksy or the pioneer Blek le Rat. His works build a bridge between eras: revisiting the classics, not hesitating to twist Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring, Hokusai’s The Great Wave, or Picasso’s deconstructed forms to confront them with a modern urban aesthetic akin to Mr Brainwash or Kaws. POP CULTURE & NOSTALGIA Drawing on the collective imagination, SKE manipulates icons from our childhood. He stages Disney’s universe with figures like Mickey or Pinocchio, and the symbolic greed of Scrooge McDuck. The influence of gaming, comics, and graphic novels is omnipresent: from Nintendo world and the legendary Game Boy, to Pokemon creatures (Pikachu, Charizard, Ash), through Marvel superheroes. SKE crystallizes these memories in the manner of Daniel Arsham or Takashi Murakami. LUXURY, HYPE & CONSUMER SOCIETY In a style that sometimes evokes Alec Monopoly, the artist plays with codes of success and materialism. The dollar symbol sits beside luxury and fashion logos. His canvases capture the "Hype" aesthetic: sneaker culture (Nike Air Jordan, Adidas, Off-White) and high fashion (Louis Vuitton, Hermès, Louboutin). He also integrates automotive adrenaline (Ferrari, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG) and precision watchmaking (Rolex, Tag Heuer), not to mention mass consumer icons like Coca-Cola. It is vibrant art, with textured finishes reminiscent of Jeff Koons’ glossy surfaces or the facets of Richard Orlinski. This work is ideal to enrich a collection or bring a dynamic touch to your interior. - Instagram artist SKE: ske_shakeyourart
