Unique and Fluid Description.
The work is an explosive celebration of the character, where the saturated and vibrant pastel gives Pikachu its unmistakable glow.
Harianna goes beyond simple illustration, infusing her work with a strong material component: the background is animated by energetic drops and splashes of acrylic (red and blue), creating a vivid splatter effect. This technique, typical of urban art, adds depth and an almost electric dynamism to the composition.
The hand-drawn border and the lettering 'P O K É M O N' scratched and deliberately imperfect frame the subject, emphasizing the bridge between nostalgic videogame iconography and the influences of Expressionism and Street Art.
An unmissable opportunity for art, video game, and contemporary pop art collectors seeking an original piece with a complex story and technique.
