// Insectes by Takis, created in 1981, is a limited-edition lithograph that explores abstract forms with a playful yet enigmatic composition. The piece features a series of brushstrokes in shades of blue and purple, layered to create a textured background that adds depth and movement. At the center, Takis has sketched a simplified, almost mechanical insect form with black lines and shapes, evoking both organic and robotic qualities. This juxtaposition highlights Takis's interest in the intersection between nature and technology. The minimalist yet expressive approach in Insectes reflects Takis’s innovative style and his fascination with energy, movement, and unseen forces.

What is conceptual art?
Sometimes referred to as Conceptualism, this is an art form where the idea(s) or concept(s) behind the work take precedence over material concerns and traditional aesthetics. Many conceptual artworks can be created by anyone simply by following written instructions. The concept or idea is the most essential aspect of the artwork.
