Work Summary & Collector Notes

"La Cage, une envie de crime" ("a desire for crime") is a 2024 hand-signed screen print in an edition of 150. Built from 24 colours on 330gsm Somerset paper at 90 x 59 cm, it represents Chevrier working in her most labor-intensive medium, where each hue is laid down as a separate pass.

Why It Matters

Screen prints occupy a distinct place in Chevrier's output: the 24-colour registration produces the dense, saturated comic surfaces that giclées can only reproduce. This piece demonstrates the technical ambition behind the Cages series, where the medium itself echoes the layered, fragmented visual logic of the imagery.

Collector Perspective

A signed screen print on Somerset at this colour count carries more studio-process value than a standard giclée, which collectors weigh when comparing editions of similar size. The edition of 150 is moderate, and the physical qualities of true screen printing, including tactile ink layering, tend to reward in-person viewing and framed display.

Historical Context

Chevrier's screen-print editions are frequently produced with specialist print houses, aligning her with the contemporary urban and pop-print tradition. The 24-colour Somerset format places this work alongside her other flagship screen prints, a format she reserves for compositions warranting the extra production complexity.
