Cubic Icon Pop
66x68cm
Acrylic on Bubble Wrap
In "Cubic Icon Pop," Oli translates a global icon onto a canvas of bubble wrap, creating a direct dialogue with its 3D-printed companion piece. By meticulously painting each individual bubble, the artist transforms a disposable material into a pixelated mosaic. The familiar character is imbued with a nostalgic, 8-bit video game aesthetic, looking both charmingly retro and surprisingly delicate. The title is a witty triple entendre, referencing Pop Art, the pop culture subject, and the playful sound of the medium itself.
