BRIGITTE BARDOT 2

Here, Brigitte Bardot becomes an icon trapped between nostalgia and urban art. Sitting naturally, she occupies the entire right side of the painting, as if time has stopped just for her. Above her head, the phrase “Il était une fois” (“Once upon a time”) suggests the beginning of a modern tale, where the feminine, the pop, and the poetic intertwine.
The background, a beautiful chaos of torn posters and graffiti, evokes a living and worn city. On the left, the unexpected presence of a vintage Heinz mustard label acts as an ironic wink, breaking the solemnity of the myth and reminding us that pop culture is made of both glamour and everyday objects. A scene where the ephemeral and the eternal coexist.
