Roman Feral, a real alchemist - Galeries Bartoux

Roman Feral, a real alchemist

Through his contemporary works such as “Chanel White Pearl Zebra” and “Boîte à chapeau azur“, Roman Feral immortalizes real butterflies, iconic accessories of the great luxury houses, such as Dior, Chanel or Louis Vuitton.

The artist obtains these delicate beauties from aviaries – in South America or Indonesia – that respect their ecosystem and promote their preservation.

It is within these refuges that the butterflies are naturalized to be preserved forever… 

Like a true alchemist, he seeks to capture the essence of refinement and preciousness of certain luxury icons with one of nature’s most delicate jewels: butterflies.

By making them fly, he creates the illusion of endless flight, a moment of suspended grace and the impression of granting the delicate butterflies an eternal life.

Transforming the ephemeral into the timeless has become his signature. Roman Feral exhibited his first collection at Art Basel 2018, successfully attracting the attention of collectors and professionals alike.
