A head tilts back in profile, engraved in fine sepia lines on sand. The ear is soft and whole, the lips shut. Black voids open at the brow and the base of the neck, and a dark column runs down into the chest.
Ear, lip and chin are kept in careful detail. Between them the face is a folded sheet that lifts away like a petal, and the black behind it is not a background: the same dark fills the neck and the chest. Nothing marks where flesh ends and void begins. The profile holds on a few small parts, and holds because of them.
Ear, corner of the mouth, hinge of the jaw: he keeps only the places a person never sees on their own face. Beside him, one notices how few of them hold the rest up.

SaintPixel is an art project created by Mikael Gueguen, who was born in France in the 1970s. He trained in applied arts and fine arts, including a two-year apprenticeship in decorative painting (wood and marble finishes, large-scale scenic designs, and trompe l'œil). An IT entrepreneur in the 2000s, he returned to artistic and manual practice, working today at the intersection of traditional media and generative AI.
