Description: With Pauvre de moi, French artist Maye continues his exploration of a whimsical world inhabited by elongated, delicate figures that blend poetry, irony, and social commentary. This piece depicts a fragile, almost disjointed character, embodying with humor and subtlety a universal feeling of discouragement or helplessness.

The title, laced with self-deprecating humor, suggests a theatrical resignation — a bittersweet complaint in the face of life’s absurdities. True to his signature style, Maye fills the composition with abundant detail, creating a scene that feels both chaotic and meticulously choreographed.

The central figure — part acrobat, part victim of daily life — appears trapped within his own environment: an urban yet dreamlike setting where the fragile balance between imagination and reality always seems on the verge of tipping.

Pauvre de moi is tender, ironic, and deeply perceptive. It reflects Maye’s talent for telling stories without words, revealing the contradictions of our era through a lightness of line that masks profound emotional depth.
