AMA • Pope (1985) - "Aurora Nova" - CHANEL - 9/20

In the tradition of the original luminous works from the Aurora Borealis collection, discover "Aurora Nova," a hand-customized luminous pop sculpture in a limited edition of 20 copies for 2025, themed around the French haute couture house Chanel (this is not an official brand object).

A strong, minimalist and contemporary sculptural presence: the elegant mirrored sphere attracts the eye when off, then reveals, once illuminated, an intense and hypnotic light explosion at its core.

The iconic CC monogram, suspended at the center of the sphere, becomes the focal point of the work. It seems to float in a vibrant luminous universe, creating a spectacular and instantly recognizable visual effect.

Aurora Nova embodies a purified and confident vision of light: a strong, direct, immersive signature light, conceived as a true contemporary pop artwork.

Luminous sculpture composed of a resin base and a silvered synthetic rigid glass-like sphere, manufactured commercially and customized, hand-finished by the artist Pope using a manual application technique of premium polymer vinyl.
The work personally undertaken 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 hand-finished by the artist Pope.
The limited edition applies exclusively to the graphical personalization and artistic finish carried out by the artist Pope, and not to the commercially manufactured base luminous sculpture.

Who is Pope?

Pope, cofounder of the AMA collective, develops a singular artistic universe supported by a practice in the plastic arts since childhood, a high standard for detail and careful visual research.
Through sculptures, paintings and installations, he draws inspiration from photography, urban landscapes and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and amazed eye, attentive to both simplicity and complexity of the world around him.

Pope mainly sources inspiration from the world around him but also through 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 as a gift, a keepsake or your personal collection of contemporary art, you will surely find a piece that catches your heart thanks to the diversity of our works. Indeed, Pope pursues his urban art passion through street art (streetart) and pop art (popart) (in limited edition or not), tackling a wide range of themes such as cryptocurrencies (bitcoin, ethereum), the dollar, money, gold, wealth, the sex industry, drug harms, luxury and haute couture brands, the world of comics and video games, the pharmaceutical industry and medicines, recycling and upcycling, and products from the agrifood and fashion industries (sport, sneakers, etc.).

Brand names guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Aware of this impact, Pope enjoys playfully twisting 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.
