Description from the seller
The limited edition statuette n045/100 of Maradona, crafted in street art style, is a small masterpiece that captures the contradictory soul of the legendary footballer. The white and light-blue vertical lines that cross the statuette are not mere decorative elements, but carry a deep meaning.
The white lines represent light, glory, and the beauty of Maradona's talent. They are his ability to dance between opponents, to conjure magic with the ball at his feet. These vertical white lines are like the stadium spotlights, illuminating the field and making the genius of the Pibe de Oro shine.
On the other side, the blue lines symbolize the shadow, the struggle, and the complexity of life. They are the challenges Maradona faced, his human frailties, the controversies and the downfalls. These vertical blue lines are like the winding streets of Naples, carrying with them the history of a man who was loved and criticized, celebrated and contested.
The statuette itself is a play of contrasts: the strength in the facial features, the determination in the eyes, but also vulnerability and fragility. Maradona is immortalized in this work as an imperfect hero, a soul juxtaposed between glory and darkness.
And so, while the eyes of the viewers rest on this statuette, they can reflect on the duality of human existence. Maradona, with his white and blue vertical lines, reminds us that every beauty has a dark side, and every ugliness hides a hidden beauty.
THE ARTIST
Pythia is a street art artist born and raised at the foot of Mount Etna, between lava and the wild beauty of nature. His work rests on a bold concept: everything beautiful has a dark part, and every ugliness hides a hidden beauty. Pythia seeks to express this duality through his works.
He does not merely seek to create works, but to make anyone who passes by reflect. His creations are an invitation to look beyond the surface and seek the hidden beauty in daily chaos.
The photos are part of the description as the Work is handmade and may therefore have slight imperfections which are still visible in the photo.
