AMA • Pope (1985) - Aurora BTC Hodler - BITCOIN

AMA • Pope (1985) – "Aurora BTC Hodler" – BITCOIN - 11/20 When conviction becomes belief. Following the success of the Aurora Borealis series, Aurora Counterfeit Original, Aurora Authentic Fake… AMA continues its ironic exploration of contemporary myths, between alternative finance, digital culture, and absolute faith in new systems of value. "Aurora BTC Hodler" bends the imagery of cryptocurrency into a luminous, chrome, hypnotic, almost ritual art object. On the front face, the message is clear: BITCOIN, frozen as a symbol, recognizable above all. On the sides, the formula stands, without detour: HODL / TILL DEATH. A minimalist, immediate, universal creed. A contemporary belief carved in wood. The day: a chrome, cold, familiar icon. The night: a multicolored aurora borealis sets the space ablaze. A brutal contrast between financial speculation and quasi-religious commitment. Edition limited to 20 copies for 2025, signed, numbered, and delivered with AMA certificate of authenticity. Fast and secure shipping (bubble wrap, tissue paper, reinforced cardboard) with signature-required delivery.

The limited edition applies exclusively to the graphic customization and artistic finish performed by the artist Pope, and not to the base commercially manufactured luminous sculpture. Who is Pope? Pope, co-founder of the AMA collective, develops a singular artistic universe driven by a practice of visual arts since childhood, a high standard of detail, and meticulous visual research. Through sculptures, paintings, and installations, he draws inspiration from photography, urban landscapes, and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and marveling gaze, attentive to both the simplicity and the complexity of the world around him. Pope primarily draws inspiration from the world around him but also from 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 for a gift, a keepsake, or your personal collection of contemporary art, you will easily find your favorite piece thanks to the diversity of our works. Indeed, Pope pursues his urban art passion through street art (streetart) and pop art (popart) (in limited or unlimited editions) covering a wide range of themes such as cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum), the dollar, money, gold, wealth, the sex industry, drug abuse, luxury brands and haute couture, the world of comics and video games, the pharmaceutical industry and medicines, recycling and upcycling, agricultural and fashion industry products (sport, sneakers...). Brands guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Conscious of this impact, Pope likes to mischievously divert 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 more. Dear bidders, our collective makes every effort to ensure that all information necessary to evaluate the lot sold is clearly detailed in the listing: dimensions, weight, description, and photos... After the sale, no unwarranted claims will be considered. Thank you for your understanding.
