Other artworks by Sar la Rouge
In this satirical and unsettling work, Sar la Rouge transforms an ordinary domestic scene into a reflection on modern passivity and human devolution.
A man and an oversized monkey sit side by side on a couch, both absorbed by the glow of an unseen screen, blurring the line between evolution and regression, comfort and chaos.
Rendered through a tension of sketch-like distortion and realism, the unstable environment mirrors a psychological space… where distraction, instinct, and isolation quietly consume human awareness.
The monkey becomes both companion and mirror, a symbolic presence confronting the viewer with a haunting question: in an age shaped by endless entertainment and solitude, what have we become, and with whom are we truly sharing the couch?

“Some images are made to be consumed. Others are made to wake us up!” Sar la Rouge
I’m Sar La Rouge, a Franco-Togolese digital artist based in Cape Town. My work combines photography, digital collage, and new technologies to explore how images influence the way we see ourselves and the world around us.
Using photographs from my personal archive, I create layered and colourful compositions that mix emotion, culture and identity. As a self-taught artist, I approach digital art freely and intuitively, always experimenting with new ways to create.
My work often touches on themes of femininity, technology, and contemporary society, while celebrating visibility, and self-expression.
Today, I continue to expand my practice through physical prints, immersive installations, video, and AI, using digital art as a space without limits.
