Michelin Star Chef by Szabotage
Original commission piece created for Bicester Scramble.
Spray paint on metal canvas. In “Michelin Star Chef,” the Michelin Man takes centre stage, cooking up scrambled eggs amid a scattering of legendary luxury car emblems. The work nods to the spirit of the Scramble - where controlled chaos meets mechanical perfection. Whatever you do… don’t overcook it.
Dimensions 150 x 120cm
Gustav Szabo is a prolific, contemporary urban artist and designer known as Szabotage. He grew up in Hove (near Brighton in the UK) where he studied architecture before moving to London where he worked as an architect and designer. After moving to Hong Kong he quickly gained notoriety with sold-out exhibitions, solo shows, collaborative projects, private and commercial commissions with iconic brands such as Prada and Louis Vuitton.
Characterised by bright colours and popular cultural references, Szabotage’s visual language is high impact. His signature style uses layers of stencils to depict life and create personality in each unique piece.
Szabotage works with a variety of formats. His collections range from walls, canvases, prints, and cars to sculptures, stencils and NFTs. He constantly challenges limitations and enjoys creating his art and sculptures using deconstructed aerosol cans, metals and wood. In the digital space, NFTs allow him to add extra dimensions using animation and sound.
Szabotage’s Koi tag is easily recognisable. The Koi represents strength, adversity and good fortune.
