Description from the seller
Collector's item.
100% hand-painted on cotton canvas.
This painting should be displayed under UV light for a 100% experience.
Work sent without a frame, in a shipping tube via DHL Express.
Accompanied by COA, a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
The work explores the tension between contrasts: light and shadow, the classic and the urban, the intimate and the collective. The central figure, realistic with a piercing gaze, is crossed by a division that symbolizes the coexistence of distinct identities and realities. The vibrant background, marked by intense colors and graffiti strokes, dialogues with the delicacy of the pearl necklace, creating a clash between the sacred and the profane, between purity and the chaos of the city.
"Two Worlds" invites the viewer to reflect on the fragmentation of contemporary identity and on how we all, simultaneously, inhabit multiple worlds.
Hione is a visual artist from Porto who, since 2013, has used graffiti as his main form of expression. With a visual language characterized by vibrant colors and defined shapes, his work reflects a strong connection to urban culture. Throughout his career, he has developed a unique style that blends graffiti, contemporary art, illustration, and graphic design. He presents his works in both public and private contexts, aiming to provoke reflection and inspire. Today, he continues to explore new figurative approaches and deepen the impact of his art in the space around him.
