This work stages a pungent reflection on the value and power of money. The repetition of dollar bills, deformed in a fluid motion that converges to a point, evokes the idea of flow, as if money were a circulating energy. The choice to integrate a real faucet, from which money seems to gush, amplifies the conceptual dimension: money as a liquid, manipulable resource, and at the same time illusory.

In this way, the artist does not merely represent money, but stages it as spectacle and paradox: an inexhaustible source of desire, but also a symbol of a power that slips away from the hands.

The work is a digital painting on 350 g canvas, the faucet is metal, the drop resin with a metal core.
Shipping is insured. The package is carefully packed
The drop is shipped separately from the faucet, to be screwed onto the faucet (by hand) so as to ensure a safer shipment.
The assigned edition number will be randomly selected among those available.

The artist established himself in 2024 as one of the most sought-after names on Catawiki, immediately ranking after icons such as Kaws and Banksy. His art stands out in an exclusive context that includes other categories of excellence, such as Rolex, Lego, Louis Vuitton, Porsche, Eames, Macallan, Tintin, Cartier, and Pokémon. A talent recognized not only for creative value but also as one of the most promising investments of the year.

Born in 1992 in Macerata, Marche, the Italian artist pursued a path that, between studies in Geometer and Architecture, led him to collaborate with an artisan who crafts resin sculptures. There arose the increasingly strong need to find himself and unleash his creativity.
His works are sold worldwide, collaborating with galleries in Italy and Europe.
His art is widely appreciated and cannot be missing among collectors of paintings and sculptures of street art, pop art, and contemporary art.
"It is never easy to classify one's art; I try to convey what my eyes see, my way of perceiving what surrounds me, and I reshape it with a design that fits well with modern times: impactful and memorable."
