ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This portrait does not depict Muhammad Ali in motion — it captures him in presence.
The dominant orange background radiates intensity, courage, and confrontation. It evokes heat, struggle, and raw energy — the atmosphere of a fight before the first punch is thrown. Ali is not shown dodging or striking, but standing firm, shoulders squared, gaze steady.
The composition emphasizes physical mass and inner control. Muscles are sculpted through sharp stencil cuts, not exaggerated but asserted. The contrast between black and light tones builds a sense of tension — power restrained, confidence anchored.
This is not a representation of victory.
It is a portrait of self-belief.
Ali is portrayed as an icon beyond sport — a symbol of discipline, resistance, and identity. The artwork speaks to those who understand that true strength is not loud, but undeniable.
A figure who stands before the world and says: I know who I am.
About the artist
I am a French stencil artist whose work explores contrast — between instinct and precision, chaos and control, heritage and contemporary expression. My practice combines spontaneous, textured backgrounds with meticulously hand-cut multi-layer stencils.
I have exhibited alongside major figures of the urban art scene such as L’Atlas, C215, Carole B, Wawapod, and Jo Di Bona at the SPERA ART FAIR.
My work has been collected throughout Europe, with more than 300 artworks sold internationally.
I also create live painting performances for major institutions and brands, including Disneyland Paris.
Each artwork is a unique original. While stencils may be reused, every background is created instinctively, ensuring that no two works are ever identical. My work focuses on iconic figures, powerful symbols, and contemporary myths, reinterpreted through tension, presence, and materiality.
SHIPPING
The artwork will be carefully packed using professional, reinforced materials to ensure maximum protection during transport.
Worldwide shipping with tracking and insurance included.
