Original artwork description

Frida Kahlo. Self-Portrait
A contemporary interpretation of the famous painting "Self-Portrait with Thorns and Hummingbird" by Mexican artist Frida Kahlo. This work combines the artist's classic image with elements of street art and collage, where industrial climbers "paint over" the painting like a billboard.
The addition of workers in bright yellow clothing and blue brushstrokes transforms the classic masterpiece into a pop art piece, emphasizing the relevance and replicability of the artist's image in contemporary popular culture.
