About this work

THE MEASURE OF SILENCE (MOZART) Punkmetender 2026 Punkmetender has emerged as a distinctive voice in contemporary art, building a reputation for works that bridge classical references with contemporary execution. The artist's practice demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of art historical dialogue while maintaining a firmly modern sensibility, positioning them within a growing collector base drawn to conceptually rigorous yet visually commanding pieces. The Measure of Silence (Mozart) presents a contemplative meditation on the legendary composer, rendered through the artist's characteristic approach to portraiture and cultural memory. The work commands attention through its substantial scale, measuring 48 by 60 inches, allowing for an immersive encounter with the subject matter. The archival pigment print on canvas serves as the foundation, yet it is the artist's individual hand-embellishment of each piece that elevates the work beyond mere reproduction into the realm of unique artistic object. The application of handwritten epoxy resin introduces both textural dimension and an intimate, almost devotional quality, suggesting notation, correspondence, or the very manuscripts Mozart himself might have penned. This layering of mechanical precision with gestural intervention speaks to broader questions of authenticity, reproduction, and the artist's hand in an age of digital creation. Available as an edition of seven with two artist's proofs, each work bears the artist's signature and date, ensuring clear provenance for collectors. The limited edition structure offers accessibility while maintaining exclusivity appropriate to the work's ambition. Guy Hepner invites collectors to inquire further regarding availability and acquisition of this significant work.

About the Membrane Prints Series

Roman Lefebvre is a French multidisciplinary artist working across digital film, photography, painting and sculpture. His practice examines the invisible structures through which perception becomes memory, belief and reality.

Across both digital and material forms, Lefebvre explores the distance between seeing something and possessing its meaning. His earlier practice under the moniker Punkmetender established a visual language of metamorphosis, beauty and repetition; urrent work moves those concerns toward time, consciousness and the instability of representation.

Membrane examines the unstable boundary between what is visible and what remains inaccessible. Historical portraits, sacred figures and classical forms are altered through oil painting, abrasion, handwritten language and transparent epoxy resin.

The surface preserves the image while interrupting access to it. Writing does not explain the subject; it becomes another veil placed between the viewer and certainty.

The series asks whether revelation produces understanding, or simply expands the unknown.

In Membrane, that investigation becomes physical through oil painting, abrasion, handwritten language and transparent epoxy resin. Images are preserved while access to them is interrupted, creating a tension between revelation and concealment.

“The image reveals itself without surrendering its meaning."

About Punkmetender

Roman Lefebvre is a French multidisciplinary artist based in Miami. Born in Paris and shaped by nearly two decades in Los Angeles, Lefebvre played an integral role in developing the visual identity, design language and studio practice of Mr. Brainwash during the formative years of his international career. He is featured in the Academy Award- nominated documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop and worked alongside Banksy and other influential figures of the international street-art movement.

Under the name Punkmetender, Lefebvre subsequently established an independent international practice spanning painting, sculpture, installation and large-scale public work. His works are held in prominent private collections internationally, including those of a member of the Getty family, Mariah Carey, Khloé Kardashian, Paris Hilton and Dave Navarro, among others.

Now working under his own name, Lefebvre is expanding his practice through digital film and Membrane, a materially layered series examining perception, memory and the unstable boundary between image and reality. Moving between contemporary digital figures and historical imagery transformed through oil painting, abrasion, handwritten language and transparent epoxy resin, his work explores how beauty is preserved, disrupted and reinterpreted across time.

Available through Guy Hepner in New York.
