Sebi works across spray stencils, robotic pen drawing, gold leaf, and digital collage. His practice moves between appropriation and reinvention — art-historical imagery taken apart, digitally recombined, then translated back into physical form through plotters, stencils, and direct painting. Gold meets street, canon meets intervention.
Hard Light — the title borrows from photography’s vocabulary, where “hard light” creates sharp shadows and high contrast, revealing every texture and flaw. The work stages what Sebi describes as “beauty, symmetry, dreams, love — all this is found inside both sexes. The superimposition of two faces creates a liminal state between genders, identities, and the hard light of self-examination.” The motif also exists as a 10x6m stencil mural in Vienna’s Siebensterngasse, painted in 2022. The small format (40x30cm) demands proximity — this is a work you lean into, not one that announces itself across a room. Edition of 50 makes it one of Sebi’s most accessible prints.
