Kitsune silhouette sculpture

Standing in the wind, a masked schoolgirl stares back at you, armed with a katana... Demon hunter, psychopath or warrior possessed by the spirit of a fox...

Some see Cat-woman, others Black Mamba in Kill Bill. But it was the world of manga that inspired Yvon Luneau to draw his character. Fans will notice that she has several typical characteristics of the genre: the uniform, the long, slender legs, the Kitsune mask... But more than a tribute to manga and Japanese pop culture, it's a story that the artist-designer wants to take you into with his heroine.

A presence, a story, adventures, emotions, a reverie...

With these realistic, expressive silhouettes, Yvon Luneau aims to spark your imagination and stimulate your emotions. With Kitsune, frail and powerful, charming and distressing, he wants to go further and take you on a journey through a multitude of stories.

A call to contemplation and storytelling.

It's a sculpture that could be set up in a large, bright room, with only an armchair to face it. An armchair where you could sit and look at it, let your gaze take you in and take you off into a story. A story that could be different every day. She's a bit of a modern Scheherazade.

A work of art between design and pop art.

Originally designed to adorn bookends, Kitsune has abandoned all usefulness to become a life-size silhouette. A work of art that exists only in itself. A sculpture available in several versions:

• In white or black, in a non-limited edition with a simple base.
• In white or black, in a customised version on request.
• As a unique piece, in patinated steel or another finish on request.

If you're hesitating between black and white, Yvon Luneau recommends white. This colour makes it more evanescent, more spectral.

A solid, stable sculpture in laser-cut steel.

Shohan-Design's silhouettes are designed to be stable, solid and light for a metal sculpture. They are made in 3 parts that can be dismantled for easy transportation. The silhouette is slightly curved to ensure rigidity. The base is in two parts, giving it good stability in the middle of a room, and if you want to place it against a wall, simply remove the rear part without unbalancing it.

The paint chosen is powder-coated. This type of paint offers high mechanical and chemical resistance as well as excellent anti-corrosion properties. A wide range of colours and finishes (matt, gloss, satin, metallic) is available.
Manufacturing and painting are carried out by our partner BPLAN.

Other materials and surface treatments are available on request for an even more unique look and/or outdoor installation.
