IDEA/CONCEPT
This mural blends classical art with modern abstraction, reimagining a Greco-Roman sculpture through a contemporary lens. The fragmented, pixelated effect symbolizes time’s passage and the evolving nature of artistic expression. The subject’s upward gaze suggests transcendence, curiosity, and a connection between the past and the future.
EXECUTION & PROCESS
The artist utilized a mix of freehand and stencil techniques, layering geometric blocks with smooth shading to create depth. The rich interplay of blues and oranges enhances contrast, making the figure appear both ethereal and monumental. The scaffolding in the background hints at the ever-evolving process of creation, emphasizing that art, much like history, is never truly complete.
