The iconic CC monogram, suspended at the center of the sphere, becomes the focal point of the work. It appears to float in a vibrant luminous universe, creating a spectacular and instantly recognizable visual effect. Aurora Nova embodies a purified, unequivocal vision of light: a strong, direct, immersive light signature, designed as a true contemporary pop artwork. - LED sphere lamp with mirror effect - Simple, immediate switch-on - Intense signature lighting (see photos) Limited edition lamp, numbered, signed and delivered with a certificate of authenticity.

Pope, co-founder of the collective AMA, develops a singular artistic universe driven by a practice of visual arts since childhood, a high standard for detail, and meticulous visual research. Through sculptures, paintings and installations, he draws inspiration from photography, urban landscapes and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and amazed gaze, attentive to both the simplicity and the complexity of the world around him. Pope mainly 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.
