The scene depicts Bellerophon riding Pegasus, the legendary winged horse born from the blood of Medusa. In mythology, Pegasus represents freedom, inspiration and divine power, while Bellerophon symbolizes human ambition and the desire to transcend limits. In this composition, the rearing Pegasus expresses movement, strength and elevation. The sculpture-like posture evokes classical statues while the stencil treatment transforms it into a contemporary urban artwork. The background, composed of layered blue, purple and mineral tones, was created instinctively to evoke sky, clouds and mythological atmosphere. The textured surface contrasts with the sharp lines of the stencil, highlighting the tension between chaos and control. The image was created using my double-layer stencil technique. Each element was digitally designed and meticulously hand-cut before being applied with spray paint and acrylic. This process allows the graphic structure to remain precise while the background remains expressive and alive. The result bridges ancient mythology and modern street art, transforming a classical symbol into a contemporary visual language. This is a unique, original artwork. Even if the stencil may reappear in future works, each background remains entirely one of a kind.
