SAN PROJECTS, a highly regarded production company, has partnered with Stems Gallery to produce an awe-inspiring art installation in Dubai. Featuring the works of renowned French multidisciplinary artist, Julien Boudet, the installation includes two thought-provoking sculptures, "Explosion, 2023" and "Pressure, 2023", which challenge visitors' perceptions of reality.
Inspired by Boudet's passion for car culture in Dubai, the two sculptures pay tribute to the iconic Mercedes G Wagon, the city's most popular car. Drawing on Boudet's passion for basketball and the iconic AMG logo, the sculptures explore the concepts of accumulation and compression, creating a giant counterfeit AMG basketball and playing with logos and bootleg culture, which is prevalent in Dubai.
