Depth: 9 cm

Light sculpture consisting of a resin base and a silver teddy bear made of rigid synthetic material with a glass-like appearance, commercially produced and customized, finished by hand by the artist Pope using a manual application technique of premium polymer vinyl.
The work personally carried out by the artist includes graphic design, adapting the visual to the sculpture’s shapes, precision vinyl cutting, as well as the positioning and manual application of each element.
Each copy of this edition is individually personalized and finished by hand by the artist Pope.
The limited edition applies exclusively to the graphic customization and artistic finish performed by the artist Pope, and not to the commercially manufactured base light sculpture.
Edition of artistic customization and finishing: 5/20 — 2025.

Who is Pope?
Pope, co-founder of the AMA collective, develops a singular artistic universe driven by a practice of the visual arts since childhood, a rigorous attention to detail and meticulous visual research.
Through sculptures, paintings and installations, he draws inspiration from photography, urban landscapes and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and wonder-filled gaze, attentive to both the simplicity and the complexity of the world around him.

Pope mainly draws inspiration from the world around him but also from currents of renowned artists such as Banksy, Keith Haring, Koons, Orlinski, Takashi, Fred Allart, Shepard Fairey, Warhol, Yayoi Kusama, Richard Hamilton, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Alec Monopoly, KAWS, Pantone, Mr. Brainwash, Blek le Rat, to name a few.

Whether it’s a gift, a keepsake or your personal collection of contemporary art, you’ll surely find your favorite piece thanks to the diversity of our works. Indeed, Pope pursues his passion for urban art through street art and pop art creations (limited or not), addressing a wide range of themes such as cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum), the dollar, money, gold, wealth, the sex industry, drug abuse, luxury fashion brands, the world of comics and video games, the pharmaceutical industry and medicines, recycling and upcycling, food and fashion industry products (sport, sneakers...),

Brands guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Aware of this impact, Pope likes to mischievously divert labels such as Louis Vuitton (LV), Chanel, Dior, Hermès, Prada, Gucci, Rolex, Yves Saint Laurent (YSL), Supreme, Obey, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG, Mercedes, Nike (Air Jordan), Adidas (Stan Smith), Coca Cola, Pepsi, Marvel and Avengers (Batman, Joker, Superman...), Disney (Mickey, Scrooge McDuck...), Nintendo, Sega, Tintin, Lego, Pokemon, Vans and many others.

Dear bidders, our collective makes every effort to ensure that all information necessary to assess the lot is clearly detailed in the listing: dimensions, weight, description and photos... After the sale, no unjustified claim will be considered. Thank you for your understanding.
