AMA • Pope (1985) - Aurora Eth Moonshot - ETHEREUM

AMA • Pope (1985) - "Aurora Eth Moonshot" - Ethereum - 8/20

Often imitated, never equaled: the original Aurora, signed "Pope".
When speculation becomes a cosmic promise.

Following the success of the Aurora Borealis series, Aurora Original Counterfeit, Aurora Authentic Fake… Pope continues his ironic exploration of contemporary myths, between decentralized finance, digital culture, and a quasi-mystical projection toward new horizons of wealth.

"Aurora Eth Moonshot" twists Ethereum’s imagery into a luminous, chrome, hypnotic object, almost liturgical.

On the front face, the message is clear:
"Eth" for Ethereum, fixed as a generational symbol, instantly recognizable.

On the sides, the formula stands out, without ambiguity:
"TO THE MOON".

A modern incantation.
A collective promise engraved in wood.

The day: a chrome, futuristic, almost clinical icon.
The night: a multicolored aurora borealis floods the space.
A radical contrast between blockchain technology and speculative belief.

Who is Pope?

Pope, co-founder of the AMA collective, develops a distinctive artistic universe powered by a practice in the plastic arts since childhood, a high standard of detail, and careful visual research.
Through sculptures, paintings, and installations, he draws on photography, urban landscapes, and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and marveling gaze, attentive to both 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 for a gift, a keepsake, or your personal collection of contemporary art, you’ll easily find your favorite piece thanks to the diversity of our works. Indeed, Pope pursues his passion for street art (streetart) and pop art (popart) (in limited editions or not) by addressing a wide range of themes such as cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum), the dollar, money, gold, wealth, the sex industry, the harms of drugs, luxury brands and high fashion, the world of comics and video games, the pharmaceutical industry and medicines, recycling and upcycling, products from the agri-food and fashion industries (sport, sneakers, etc.).

Brands guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Conscious 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 more.
