Tethered to the Sky
As the second piece in the Altered Familiar series, ‘Tethered to the Sky‘ reflects the space between movement and memory, the feeling of reaching for something more, while still being held by what came before.
it’s about that in-between place: no longer where you were, not yet where you’re going. 🪽

The Altered Familiar
Maite’s new series, The Altered Familiar, explores the transformation of a universally cherished icon: the teddy bear. In this series, Maïté Côté merges hyper-realism with whimsical surrealism, reimagining these childhood symbols with traits of other animals. Each painting invites viewers to see beyond the familiar, uncovering layered identities that blur the lines between comfort and wildness, from bears with leopard fur to those cloaked in snake scales. Through meticulous detail and imaginative fusion, the series challenges perceptions of identity, adaptation, and the beauty of coexistence in hybrid forms.
Maïté Côté is a rising artist renowned for her captivating oil paintings that blend hyper-realism with surrealist elements. Maïté is known for her vibrant, honest touch and ability to create beautiful pieces from traditionally juxtaposed subjects, textures, colours, and emotions.
