Description from the seller
Pearl Tea by La Mama – Unique original artwork 1/1 XL – Artist’s Proof (EA)
When the splendor of a royal court meets the most contemporary pleasure.
In Pearl Tea, a young aristocrat appears straight out of a grand European portrait. Monumental strawberry, perfectly orderly golden curls, delicate pearls and a sumptuous velvet embroidered dress compose a silhouette imbued with nobility.
But in her hands, no sceptre or precious fan: a gigantic bubble tea. The straw adorned with pearls humorously extends the model’s jewelry, while the tapioca pearls become almost the new jewels of this contemporary sovereign.
La Mama thus transforms a banal gesture into an ornate scene. The mismatch is subtle, elegant and immediately legible: several centuries meet around a simple indulgence.

A craftsman’s digital work
The artwork plays with a wealth of textures especially crafted: the depth of dark green velvet, the golden embroidery, the delicate transparency of the strawberry and cuffs, the shine of the pearls and the almost painterly softness of the skin.
The lighting, deliberately inspired by the classical portrait, focuses the gaze on the face and hands before revealing the unexpected element of the bubble tea.
The contrast between the model’s solemnity and this decidedly contemporary object creates Pearl Tea’s entire personality: a refined work, slightly irreverent and deeply rooted in La Mama’s universe.
