Messi - Portrait

This portrait of Lionel Messi is made using upholstery nails.
Each upholstery nail is placed by hand, one by one, forming a composition in shades of black, white, and gray. From a distance, the face appears with strength and softness; up close, the eye discovers work of remarkable precision, almost sculptural, where each element contributes to the construction of the image.

This demanding technique gives the work a unique visual depth and subtle relief, creating a dialogue between light, material, and emotion.
At the crossroads of portraiture and contemporary art, this piece asserts a strong presence while maintaining great elegance.
