// About the Artwork ///

This work is part of the series “Altered Identities.”

In this series, the human figure becomes a territory of transformation. Faces crack, split, or emerge from the material like fragments of porcelain. Between masks, halos, digital glitches, and ritual symbols, each portrait evokes how identity is constructed, transformed, and performed. These figures oscillate between gentleness and alteration, inner calm and wild instinct. Through them, different facets of self-image appear: what we reveal, what we conceal, and the multiple versions of ourselves that we shape in the face of others’ gaze.

/// KALDEA'S BIOGRAPHY ///

Kaldea is a French artist living in Paris.

She has been painting on canvas since her adolescence. She quickly found her style, which has evolved over time.
In 2011, a professional opportunity in Germany allowed her to paint on larger surfaces, such as shipping containers and cars. She then quickly moved on to walls, which offered her greater possibilities for artistic expression.

Encountering diverse cultures and people is a great source of enrichment for her, an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Since her beginnings in urban art, Kaldea has become a leading figure in the scene, having participated in numerous international festivals—from London to Bangkok, via Zagreb, Munich, and Lisbon—where she works on both canvases and building facades.
Her artistic universe is imbued with Asian, ethnic, futuristic, and Art Deco influences, making it truly unique.
For her, each work must evoke a profound emotion in the viewer through its original and luminous color palette.
