Dikhotomy - Royal Cocoa - No Reserve - Unique Edition

● Exclusive Unique Edition (1/1) – Giclée print on 350 gsm cotton canvas, full size 50 × 70 cm. The image itself measures 40 × 60 cm and is printed with 5 cm. white margins on all sides, allowing for a clean, professional mounting without cropping the artwork. Perfect for framing or stretching. The artwork is hand-signed on the back by the artist and includes a stamped seal and a certificate of authenticity (COA). /// "The composition recalls the refined portraits found in major European museums, where every detail of the clothing and lighting celebrates centuries of pictorial tradition, but the simple act of tasting Nutella chocolate introduces an unexpectedly intimate contemporary narrative. The chocolate dripping slowly from the spoon becomes the true visual protagonist, bringing movement and sensuality to a scene that would otherwise be perfectly static. The artwork plays with the contradiction between aristocratic discipline and everyday pleasure."/// ● A unique collector’s experience – After your purchase, you’ll receive a digital certificate via email. Inside the package, you’ll also find a printed card signed by hand, along with an exclusive certificate containing full artist details and proof of authenticity. ● Secure & eco-friendly packaging – Carefully rolled into a recyclable cardboard tube and placed inside a rigid box for extra protection. Insured shipping with tracking number. Orders are prepared within 24–48 hours. Estimated delivery: 3–5 business days within Europe, 5–7 days internationally. ● About the Artist: Original work by Nando López, a digital artist based in Barcelona. Trained in advertising design, he began his career in agencies and design studios before fully transitioning into fashion illustration, collaborating with internationally recognized brands. ● About the Dikhotomy Project: For the past four years, Dikhotomy has been an ongoing series of digital collages and illustrations where classical art and contemporary culture collide unapologetically. Fragments of art history blend with pop elements, visual irony, and cultural critique to provoke both reflection and amusement. Each piece is the result of a creative clash between handcrafted digital editing and AI-powered tools (midjourney and recraft) merging the human and the technological. Influenced by pop art and urban art, Dikhotomy is a deliberate parody of the art world and an invitation to view it from a new perspective. ● Highlights: — Confirmed solo exhibition at Gamla Kraftstationen Gallery (Sweden), 1 May – 28 September 2025. — Upcoming digital show: “Lost in Alteration” at the Digital Horizons Museum, 25–28 October 2025. — His illustration “I am Jesus” was featured on the cover of Newsweek (Polish edition), further establishing his international reach. — In addition to exhibiting at fairs and galleries, he collaborates with interior design and concept stores in Spain, France, Belgium, and Norway.
